What is the open area where an enzyme attaches called?

Biology
1 answer:
arsen [322]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The open area where the substrate is attached to an enzyme is called the active site.

Explanation:

The active site of an enzyme corresponds to the place where the tertiary structure of this molecule leaves a free space to couple the substrate and be able to catalyze a chemical reaction.

Since the enzyme-substrate complex functions as a <u>key lock system</u>, the active site has a three-dimensional configuration that only admits certain molecules as substrate, which determines its specificity.

Dna helicase enzymes move in what direction along the dna during dna replication?
kumpel [21]

Helicases move along one strand of the duplex and push the opposing strand aside. They either migrate in the 3'-5' or 5'-3' orientation along the DNA or RNA (some can move in either direction).

  • Living things need helicases, which are enzymes, to separate the double-stranded DNA in this instance from other nucleic acid strands.
  • Helicases accomplish this by severing the hydrogen bonds that link the two strands.
  • The DNA double helix's two strands are initially separated by an enzyme known as a DNA helicase.
  • Each DnaB helicase winds the parental duplex by encircling one strand of the duplex DNA and moving in the 5′ to 3′ direction with respect to this ssDNA.
  • Primers are created on occasion when DnaB interacts with primase.
