(b)
To predict: The effect of mutating Asp 102 of trypsin to Asn on catalysis.
Concept introduction: Enzymes are the biocatalysts that accelerate the chemical reactions. These are protein molecules that speed up the reaction. Trypsin is a serine protease that is produced by pancreas. It is secreted in small intestine that hydrolyzes the protein molecules in the ingested food.
