Detailed explanation-1: -A substrate enters the active site of the enzyme. This forms the enzyme-substrate complex. The reaction then occurs, converting the substrate into products and forming an enzyme products complex. The products then leave the active site of the enzyme.
Detailed explanation-2: -If an inhibitor binds to an enzyme’s active site, they occupy it so that a substrate cannot bind to it. Sometimes this binding is permanent and irreversible. Inhibitors that bind to other regions of the enzyme can cause a change in the shape of the enzyme’s active site, much like extreme temperatures.
Detailed explanation-3: -This enzyme molecule binds reactant molecules-called substrate-at its active site, forming an enzyme-substrate complex. This brings the reactants together and positions them correctly so the reaction can occur. After the reaction, the products are released from the enzyme’s active site.
Detailed explanation-4: -A series of enzymes catalyze the reaction X → Y → Z → A. Product A binds to the enzyme that converts X to Y at a position remote from its active site. This binding decreases the activity of the enzyme.
