"Enzymes that undergo cooperative allosteric transitions invariably consist of symmetric assemblies of multiple subunits" is true or false.
Discuss the following statement: “enzymes and heat are alike in that both can speed up reactions that—although thermodynamically feasible—do not occur at an appreciable rate because they require a high activation energy. diseases that seem to benefit from the careful application of heat—in the form of hot chicken soup, for example—are therefore likely to be due to the insufficient function of an enzyme.”
The breakdown of large molecules by the enzymatic addition of water is an example of a(n) _____ reaction?
