Outline the four general stages in an enzyme-catalyzedreaction.
As you increase the temperature of an enzyme-catalyzedreaction, the rate of the reaction initially increases. It thenreaches a maximum rate and finally dramatically declines.Keeping in mind that enzymes are proteins, how do youexplain these changes in reaction rate?
What is the mechanism of action of the antibiotic drug Sulfanilamide in terms of enzyme inhibition?

- 3. Some medications permanently inactivate their target enzyme by forming a covalent bond to an amino acid in the enzyme's active site. Aspirin is one example of a pharmaceutical that uses this type of mechanism. So is penicillin. As you saw in the last chapter, the active portion of penicillin is the B-lactam ring. Penicillin forms a covalent bond to serine in the active site transpeptidase, an enzyme that is essential for forming the bacterial cell wall. Propose a mechanism for the inactivation of transpeptidase by penicillin and show the final product of the reaction.
