Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
To write an equation which represents an enzyme catalyzed reaction.
Concept Introduction :
An enzyme is also a protein which has the capability to bind with the substrate (reactant molecule) by recognizing it .Enzymes have a unique three-dimensional shape which helps them in binding to the substrate. The size of an enzyme is typically larger than that of the substrate, and it contains a region known as active site within its structure .This active site is responsible for binding the substrate and thus catalyzing the given reaction.
(b)
Interpretation:
To state that how is active site different from whole structure of enzyme.
