- There are 7 classes, including translocase.
- Isozymes catalyse the same reaction but differ in form.
- The active site is the substrate-binding region of an enzyme.
- Lock and Key Model explains rigid complementarity.
- Induced Fit Hypothesis explains flexibility of the active site.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
