Textbook Question
Chapter 21, Problem 28QAP
. Describe the lock-and-key model for enzymes. Why are the shapes of the enzyme and its substrate important in this model? What does it mean to say that an enzyme is inhibited by a particular molecule? What happens if this inhibition is irreversible? Can you think of a situation in which it might be advantageous to be able to inhibit an enzyme?

Which statement does NOT apply to the lock-and-key theory?
O explains the functioning of enzymes
explains the need for a specific three dimensional structure found in proteins
explains the reason why a particular enzyme is involved with one substrate
explains why a substrate-enzyme complex is so difficult to separate
Enzymes function most efficiently at the temperature of a typical cell, which is 37 degrees Celsius. Increases or decreases in temperature can significantly lower the reaction rate. What does this suggest about the importance of temperature-regulating mechanisms in organisms? How does this translate to the development of enzyme assays for clinical laboratory testing equipment? Explain.
