Question

Transition state structure of the substrate formed during an enzymatic reaction is ______.

पर्याय

• transient but stable

• permanent but unstable

• transient and unstable

• permanent and stable

Answer 1

Transition state structure of the substrate formed during an enzymatic reaction is transient and unstable.

Explanation:

A substrate goes through a transition stage during an enzymatic reaction before it becomes a product. Although it is suggested that the transition state is more tightly bound than either the substrate or the product, the transition state is unstable and transient by nature.
