What roles do proximity and orientation play in enzymatic catalysis?
When studying the mechanism of the enzymatic reaction, functional groups were found that ensure the connection of the enzyme molecule with the substrate and take a direct part in the act of catalysis. What are these areas of the enzyme formed by these groups called? What functional structures form them and why?
Are enzyme-catalyzed reactions examples of homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysis?

- The active site of an enzyme has the following amino acid residues as critical mediators of catalysis: Ser-134, His-347, Tyr-121 and Glu - 406. What are the most likely specific mechanisms of catalysis by these amino acid residues?arrow_forwardWhat is the defining characteristic for an enzyme catalyzing a sequential reaction? A doubledisplacement reaction?arrow_forwardFor a lot of enzymes that work on fatty acids, the rate determining step is the release of the product from the active site. This means that the activation energy for product release is much higher than the free energy of catalysis. What enthalpic or entropic contributions would make the activation energy for product release so high and explain?arrow_forward

- What does it mean to say that an enzyme- catalyzed reaction is either enzyme limited or substrate -limited?arrow_forwardWhen enzyme solutions are heated, there is a progressive loss of catalytic activity over time due to denaturation of the enzyme. A solution of the enzyme hexokinase incubated at 450C lost 50% of its activity in 12 minutes, but when incubated at 450C in the presence of a very large concentration of one of its substrates, it lost only 3% of its activity in 12 minutes. Suggest why thermal denaturation of hexokinase was retarded in the presence of one substratesarrow_forwardWhen enzyme solutions are heated, there is a progressive loss of catalytic activity over time due to denaturation of the enzyme.

- Enolase has a glutamic acid residue in its active site. Describe the experiment that was done that provided evidence for the proposed function of the glutamic acid residue in catalysis by enolase.arrow_forwardWhich statement is false for transition-state analog enzyme inhibitors? They fit the active site better than the substrate. Although they cannot perfectly mimic a transition state, they are important to the design of new pharmaceutical agents. Phosphoglycolohydroxamate inhibits the glycolytic enzyme aldolase nearly 10,000 times better than dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Due to noncovalent interactions with the active site, this type of inhibitor is reversible.arrow_forwardHow does the Michaelis-Menten equation explain why the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction reaches a maximum value at high substrate?arrow_forward
