What is it called when and enzyme and substrate come together?

When an enzyme and substrate come together, it is called the enzyme-substrate complex. This complex is a temporary intermediate state in which the enzyme binds to the substrate to catalyze a chemical reaction.


What is created when an Enzyme and substrate combined?

new bond formed


What is a substrate .?

A substrate molecule hydrogen bonds to the active site on an enzyme and causes it to distort. The distortion stresses a bond in the substrate, causing it to break into two product molecules. These are released by the enzyme and drift away.

The substance acted upon by an enzyme is called its?

A substrate is the substance acted upon by an enzyme. The enzyme substrate complex is when an enzyme molecule combines with its substrates.


What is a non-substrate?

a substrate that is not porous. IE has no pores. But more importantly it is impervious to water or air. In a material this would mean that an adhesive would need to either melt/weld or create a bond between it and the substrate. A water based glue for example would want to penetrate the surface of a substrate to create a surface it can bond to. A non-porous substrate would not allow this and so the bond, if an, would be weak.


When a substrate fits into an active site of an enzyme what is formed?

When a substrate fits into the active site of an enzyme, an enzyme-substrate complex is formed. This complex allows for the enzyme to catalyze a specific chemical reaction on the substrate.


How does an enzymes interact with a substrate?

Substrate molecules bind to enzymes at specific active sites thus activating the enzyme. The enzyme then reduces the activation energy required for a bond to form between the substrate molecules, so bonding (the reaction) proceeds at a faster rate.


What does a enzyme-substrate complex do?

An enzyme-substrate complex is formed when a subtrate molecule binds with the active site of an enzyme that is of similar shape and size. The active site of the enzyme will alter slightly to combine with the substrate molecule. This will put an strain on a particular bond of the substrate molecule, which will lower the activation energy for the reaction as the bond will break more readily. The substrate is then catalysed.
