Enzymes Flashcards
(8 cards)
1
Q
induced fit model
A
substrates bind to active site
2
Q
active site
A
somewhat flexible and changes conformation as the substrate binds
3
Q
what do enzymes do to activation energy
A
lower it by bringing substrates close together in the right orientation
4
Q
can enzymes be reused
A
yes in multiple rounds of the reaction
5
Q
competitive enzymes
A
inhibitor binds active site
6
Q
allosteric enzymes
A
inhibitor or activator binds and changes enzyme conformation
7
Q
negative feedback loop
A
inhibits
8
Q
positive feedback loop
A
activates
