Give an overview of transition state theory of enzyme and describe the effect of pH on enzyme activity.

Overview of Transition State Theory and Effect of pH on Enzyme Activity a) Transition State Theory of Enzyme Action Transition state theory is a concept in chemistry and enzymology that explains how enzymes catalyze chemical reactions. It states that chemical reactions proceed through a high-energy intermediate state called the transition state. Enzymes function by stabilizing […]

How does pH influence enzyme activity? Provide examples to illustrate the relationship.

Effect of pH on Enzyme Activity with Examples Introduction Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. They are highly sensitive to changes in their environment, and one of the most critical factors that affect enzyme activity is pH. The pH level determines the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, which
