Chapter 9, Problem 2P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

An explanation corresponding to the fact that in the conversion of His $\text{64}$ to Ala, the mutant enzyme will cleave substrate B about $1000$ times faster than substrate A is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The biological catalysts which lower the minimum amount of energy required by the reactants to convert into a product are known as enzymes. An enzyme does not alter the potential energy of reactant and product. Proteolytic enzymes commonly known as proteases are used for the cleavage of protein.
