Why does product leave the active site of enzyme?
Illustration of the induced fit model of enzyme catalysis. As a substrate binds to the active site, the active site changes shape a little, grasping the substrate more tightly and preparing to catalyze the reaction. After the reaction takes place, the products are released from the active site and diffuse away.
Why are the products separate from enzyme at the end of reaction?
An enzyme attracts substrates to its active site, catalyzes the chemical reaction by which products are formed, and then allows the products to dissociate (separate from the enzyme surface).
Why presence of enzymes does not affect on the nature and properties of end product?
Enzymes are biocatalysts of protein in nature, which accelerate the rate of biochemical reactions but do not affect the nature of final product. Like catalyst the enzymes regulate the speed and specificity of reaction without being used up but unlike catalysts enzymes are produced by the living cells only.
What happens to an enzyme after the reaction is completed?
The enzyme will always return to its original state at the completion of the reaction. One of the important properties of enzymes is that they remain ultimately unchanged by the reactions they catalyze. After an enzyme is done catalyzing a reaction, it releases its products (substrates).
What specific term is used to describe the turning off of an enzyme?
What is the specific term used to describe the “turning off” of an Enzyme? Inhibit.
Why is enzymatic deactivation important?
Because the amount of active enzyme can decline considerably during reaction, in many applications, the kinetics of enzyme deactivation are just as important as the kinetics of the reaction itself.
How is the enzyme inactivation process happen?
Enzyme inactivation can principally be attributed to mechanisms related to the reactor, the medium components, or the protein. Enzyme inactivation is often induced by phase interfaces resulting, for example, from dispersed air bubbles or biphasic liquid/liquid systems.
