|
Where is formation of TS more favorable in the bulk solution, or within the active site

TS in active (catlyzed) reaction is less unfavorable (still unfavorable)--activation barrier is lowered
|
|
How can active site greatly increase reaction probability in terms of proimity
|
the active site can posiition the molecules precisely, so that functional groups A+B face each other, and can react
|
|
Does reaction rate icnrease due to active site proximity effect
|
YES
|
|
Is the enzyme completmentary to substrate
|
NO, this would stablize the substrate this is LOCK and KEY bad
