according to lock and key model enzymes have specific geometrical shapes but due to more acceptance of induced fit model enzymes are flexible structures that change their shape according to their substrate.

Do all enzymes have the same shape as their substrates?

Yes.


Are enzymes and proteins the same thing?

Enzymes are a type of protein that act as biological catalysts to speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. So, while all enzymes are proteins, not all proteins are enzymes.


Why are enzymes used in cellular respiration identical in all species?

The same genetic code produces those enzymes


Denatured enzymes are the same as?

Denatured enzymes are enzymes whose structure has been altered, leading to loss of their original function. They lose their ability to catalyze reactions efficiently or at all due to changes in their shape or folding. This can be caused by factors such as temperature, pH, or exposure to chemicals.


Why are all enzymes catalysts but not all catalysts are enzymes?

Are all possible enzymes present at the same time at the cell?

No, not all possible enzymes are present in a cell at the same time. Each cell contains specific enzymes required for its metabolic processes, and the presence of enzymes is regulated by factors such as gene expression, cellular signaling, and environmental conditions. Enzyme production is tightly controlled to match the cell's metabolic needs.


Will all enzymes react the same way with two enantiomers?

no, enzymes are very specific with respect to stereo-chemistry and usually is active only to one enantiomer

All enzymes function optimally at pH equals 7.4 . true or false?

False. While some enzymes may function optimally at a pH of 7.4, not all enzymes have the same optimal pH. Enzymes can have a range of pH values at which they function best, depending on their specific structure and function.


Are enzymes all nucleic acids?

No, nucleic acids are not enzymes. Nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides where as enzymes are proteins, but all proteins are not enzymes.
