Which of the following is true of all allosteric enzymes? They have more than one active site on each subunit. They consist of proteins only. They have a nonprotein portion. Binding at one site affects the protein function at a second site. Which of the following explains why glycosides do not undergo mutarotation? There are no longer any stereocenters. There is no longer an anomeric carbon. The ring structure does not open to become the open-chain structure. None of the above is correct.

All of the following are characteristics of the active site of an enzyme EXCEPT? Select the correct response. It has a complementary shape to its substrate. It is the binding site for many different kinds of molecules. It is found somewhere in the interior of the enzyme. It has less water content compared to the cytoplasm.
When the enzyme hexokinase binds to glucose and ATP it undergoes a conformational change. All of the following are true about this enzyme-substrate binding EXCEPT: The active site changes shape so that it binds more tightly to the substrates The substrates are optimally positioned for the reaction to occur The substrates become contorted or strained, which increases their reactivity The activation energy of the reaction increases
When studying the mechanism of the enzymatic reaction, functional groups were found that ensure the connection of the enzyme molecule with the substrate and take a direct part in the act of catalysis. What are these areas of the enzyme formed by these groups called? What functional structures form them and why?
Which of the following best describes a coenzyme? Small charged ions like Fe2+ that help an enzyme to do its job Larger molecules like vitamin D that help an enzyme to do its job A source of energy needed to power an energy-requiring chemical reaction Another name for the substrates that an enzyme will act upon Products made from an enzyme-catalyzed reaction
Which of the following statements regarding enzymes and transition states is true? stabilization of the transition state must be less than stabilization of ES for catalysis to occur binding of substrate to an enzyme often causes strain, thus promoting transition state formation the transition state conformation of an enzyme catalyzed reaction is identical to the conformation seen in the uncatalyzed transition state formation of the transition state always assures that the reaction will proceed to product none of the above are true
Which of the following is NOT true about enzymes? Enzyme inhibitors interact reversibly or irreversibly with an enzyme to alter its Km and /or Vmax values. Enzymes typically act under milder conditions of temperature and pH than non-enzyme chemical catalysts. Zymogens are the inactive precursors of enzyme. Nucleophilic groups can catalyze reactions through the transient formation of covalent bonds with the substrate. Transition state stabilization can significantly increase the activation energy for a reaction.
What is the difference between a coenzyme and a prosthetic group? Coenzymes are weakly bound whereas prosthetic groups are strongly bound to their respective enzymes. Coenzymes are essential for an enzymeʹs function and prosthetic groups only enhance its reaction rate. Coenzymes are organic cofactors and prosthetic groups are inorganic cofactors. Coenzymes require additional ions to bind to enzymes but prosthetic groups are able to directly interact with enzymes.
Which of the following is not a mechanism that enzymes use to lower the activation energy of a reaction?
As biological catalysts, enzymes play a fundamental role in many cellular processes. Which of the following statements about enzymes is correct? 1. Enzymes are essential for anabolic pathways; they are not required for catabolic pathways. 2. While an increase in temperature can increase the rate of an uncatalyzed reaction, it can’t increase the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. 3. Enzymes force substrates into unique conformations that do not occur in the absence of an enzyme. 4. Enzymes decrease the free energy of a reaction’s transition state. A. 1, 2 and 3 B. 1 and 3 C. 2 and 4 D. 4 only E. All of 1, 2, 3 and 4 are correct
which of the following is a primary function of the active site of an enzyme?
