Question

State the sequence of events in an enzyme-controlled reaction.

Accepted Answer

Enzyme controlled reaction:Molecules in solution move & collide randomlyWhen a specific substrate collides with a specific enzyme and it fits the active site, the substrate binds to the active site - enzyme-substrate complexSubstrate(s) react and product(s) are formed in an enzyme-product complexProduct(s) are released, leaving enzyme unchanged and able to catalyse more reactions
