This is an example of catabolism, in which the enzyme produces two product molecules from one complex sustrate. 1) Enzyme and Substrate. 2) Enzyme and Substrate complex. 3) Enzyme and products.
<h3>How does the metabolic action occur?</h3>In metabolic reactions mediated by enzymes, the substrates turn into products faster than they would naturally do. This is because enzymes are catalyzer molecules that accelerate natural reactions.
- Anabolism is the process through which the enzyme takes small molecules to composed a larger one. The enzyme helps to build a complex molecule from simpler ones.
- Catabolism is the process by which a complex large molecule is brocken into simpler smaller molecules. The enzyme gets in contact with the substrate and break it appart into pieces.
Enzymes have specific active sites to which the substrate binds. Once these molecules join through these binding sites, the enzyme turns the substrate into product molecules.
In the exposed example we can see an enzyme with two active sites and arrows indicating the direction of the reaction. This is an example of catabolism.
1) Enzyme and Substrate. We can see the enzyme with free active sites, and a complex molecule (green) approaching.
2) Enzyme and Substrate complex. The complex molecule has already binded the enzyme through the binding site composing a complex.
3) Enzyme and products. We can see the enzyme with free active sites, and two simpler molecules (yellow and blue) leaving.
