How do substrate concentration and pH affect enzyme-controlled reactions

Biology

Dima020 [189]4 years ago
6 0
For example, pH can have an effect of the state of ionization of acidic or basic amino acids. Acidic amino acids have carboxyl functional groups in their side chains. Basic amino acids have amine functional groups in their side chains. If the state of ionization of amino acids in a protein is altered then the ionic bonds that help to determine the 3-D shape of the protein can be altered. This can lead to altered protein recognition or an enzyme might become inactive.

Changes in pH may not only affect the shape of an enzyme but it may also change the shape or charge properties of the substrate so that either the substrate connot bind to the active site or it cannot undergo catalysis.

In geneal enzyme have a pH optimum. However the optimum is not the same for each enzyme.

Does the protein solution have a high molarity? what is evidence for your conclusion?
xxMikexx [17]
NO, the protein solution do not have a high morality. The protein solutions generally have lower molarities. This is because protein molecules are larger in size and do not form a soluble and uniform solution. Protein molecules do not dissolve in solutions.

allsm [11]
If scientists collect and store seeds samples this means that they want to have a collection of the species with the objective of being sure that the species won't disappear- with the objective of preserving the species.

If they collect seeds of many species, this means that they're interested in the diversity of species: the correct answer is (4) preserve the diversity of plant species
