Only the substrate molecule for a particular enzyme will fit into the active site. This is known as the lock-and-key mechanism. What does that say about the relationship between the enzyme and the substrate? The enzyme will catalyze two chemical reactions with one substrate. The enzyme will catalyze all chemicals with one substrate. The enzyme will not catalyze any chemicals with any substrates. The enzyme will catalyze only one chemical with only one substrate. 28 29 O Search
Catalysis and Enzymatic Reactions
Catalysis is the kind of chemical reaction in which the rate (speed) of a reaction is enhanced by the catalyst which is not consumed during the process of reaction and afterward it is removed when the catalyst is not used to make up the impurity in the product. The enzymatic reaction is the reaction that is catalyzed via enzymes.
Lock And Key Model
The lock-and-key model is used to describe the catalytic enzyme activity, based on the interaction between enzyme and substrate. This model considers the lock as an enzyme and the key as a substrate to explain this model. The concept of how a unique distinct key only can have the access to open a particular lock resembles how the specific substrate can only fit into the particular active site of the enzyme. This is significant in understanding the intermolecular interaction between proteins and plays a vital role in drug interaction.
