Document Summary

Many enzymatic reactions involve reactions between a _______________ and an. The majority of reactions in metabolism use ___ as an ______ because it has a partial. Acid-base reactions depend on _______________ to act as bases and acids. Bases: his, asp, glu acids: his, lys. Acid catalysis usually happens through direct _________ to substrate to activate the reaction. An intermediate is formed by the covalent joining of the substrate and enzyme, this intermediate goes on to further reaction with another reactant or the starting enzyme strucutre is regenerated through reaction with water. As the ph increases or decreases, the ionziation states of the amino acid side groups changes. If critical side groups are in the active site, change in ionziation alter the strength of substrate binding/catalytic activity. A maximum in the ph dependence curve occurs if there are __________________. Two ionizable groups, or if there are two steps in a reaction involving his in alternating protonated and unprotonated states.
