In theory - I believe - even the rearrangement of the molecule will change the property. For instance, there are two types of Aspirin, say Type 1 and Type 2. The Aspirin that you buy off shelf is Type 1, which is a pain killer in the correct doses. Type 2 Aspirin, which is just a slight rearrangement of Type 1 Aspirin, is a poison to human if given the same dose as Type 1, if that makes sense.

Explanation:

An example of an enzyme is carbonic anhydrase. It catalyzes the reversible reaction between water and carbon dioxide, in the body, to form carbonic acid. This reaction would normally be very slow but is sped up in the body. This allows the body to regulate the pH of the blood and also helps gets rid of carbon dioxide from the tissues.
