The cell can also regulate the rate of reaction of key enzymes. Enzymes are able to bind to their substrate because they have an active site. An induced fit occurs where the active site of the ...
(Image: National Human Genome Research Institute) Enzymes are highly specific to their substrates, the molecules upon which they act. The active site of an enzyme has a unique three-dimensional ...
The cell can also regulate the rate of reaction of key enzymes. The binding of the enzyme to its substrate also lowers the activation energy of the reaction (amount of energy needed to make a ...
