The diagram above compares for each of four different proteolytic enzymes the chemical
bonding structure of a classical substrate with the structures of two competitive in-hibitors.
For each substrate structure, an arrow indicates the position of the scissile bond that is cleaved
by enzyme action and a green circle identifies the part of the substrate for specific-ity of
substrate recognition. For each enzyme, one of the inhibitors is a classical competitive
inhibitor while the other is a transition-state inhibitor analog.
QUESTION: For each enzyme identify the transition-state inhibitor analog by drawing a
circle around it and give a brief explanation of why it mimics the structure of the transition-
state species.

Expert Solution
Step 1 Introduction

Whenever a reaction takes place there are reactants and they form products but in between, during the process of formation of product, we get an intermediate substance which is known as a transition substance. The stage where this substance is formed is the transition stage. As the name suggests, the transition state is the stage between the reactant and the product. It is mid-way between the two and at this time the reaction can either fall back to be a reactant or move forward to products. This is also called an activated complex. The name, "activated complex" is a mixture of reactant and product. 

Reactant + enzyme   Reactant-enzyme complex  Product + enzyme
