BIOL 3P30 Lecture Notes - Lecture 24: Endergonic Reaction, Activation Energy, Protein Folding
Document Summary
Outline: introduction, free energy, free energy and standard free energy, energy coupling, coupled reactions, thermodynamics of glycolysis. The first set of questions are thermodynamics and the second set of questions are kinetic questions. B to form a transition state and successfully be converted to c: ea is the rate limiting step in the reaction, the larger its value the slower the reaction. Therefore plays a role in the rate of o reaction: enzymes work to reduce the activation energy of a reaction reactant to product. Nope, that would be ea kinetics), enzymes function to lower the activation energy barrier, speed up a reaction. Activation energy barrier determines the rate of a reaction (how fast it will go, ie: Do enzymes determine which direction a reaction will go in? o reverse because they grab onto the intermediates. No, enzymes only provide a place for the reaction; they can run in. The value of g o o o o o o o.
