Chapter 20, Problem 20.59AQAP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

“Sucrase hydrolyzes sucrose but not lactose” should be explained with the help of the lock-and-key model.

Concept Introduction:

The lock-and-key model explains that each enzyme acts on a specific substrate because the size of the substrate must fit to the active site of the enzyme. An enzyme acts a catalyst in biochemical reactions and a substrate should fit into the active site of an enzyme to form enzyme-substrate complex. After the reaction, the substrate is converted to product and those product molecules leave the active site of the enzyme. As a result, the enzyme is recovered after the reaction.
