(Reactants) AB+CD-> AC + BD (Products)

20
Q

For energy to move forward energy must be ____

A

present and available to raise reactants to the transition state

21
Q

When is energy released in activation energy (Ea)?

A

-old bonds are broken
-new bonds formed
-product assumes a lower energy, more stable state

22
Q

Activation energy serves as a ____

A

barrier to reaction progression and completion

23
Q

Enzymes Lower Ea:
Enzymes and reactants form an

A

Enzyme-Substrate (ES) Complex
E + S <-> ES

24
Q

Enzymes Lower Ea:
Interaction between enzyme and substrate usually ____

A

high specific

25
Substrates bind at (groove or packet exposed on the surface of enzyme)
active site
26
Operate enzymes under what optimal conditions?
-Temp -Salt Conc. -pH
27
Anything that impacts protein structure affects _____
enzyme function
28
As [Substrate] increases, the rate of product formed eventually ____
slows down
29
Controlling Reaction Rate: increase the rate of product formation
activators
30
Controlling Reaction Rate: Decrease the rate of product formation
inhibitors
31
Types of enzyme inhibitors
-reversible inhibitors -irreversible inhibitors
32
Type of Enzyme Inhibitor: -covalent attachment to enzyme -usually at active site
irreversible inhibitors
33
Type of Enzyme Inhibitor: -non covalent attachment to enzyme -several types - competitive inhibitor - noncompetitive inhibitor
reversible inhibitor
34
Type of Reversible Inhibitor: -mimic shape of the substrate -reduced by increasing the concentration of substrate
competitive inhibitor
35
Type of Reversible Inhibitor: -binds to enzyme away from site -changes structure of enzyme -reduces ability of enzyme to function normally
noncompetitive inhibitor
