When I first introduced enzymes we discussed how , "Enzyme exert kinetic control over thermodynamic potentiality". 1) What is thermodynamic potentiality? 2) What is meant when we say enzymes exert kinetic control over thermodynamic potentiality?
Homework Answers
1)Thermodynamic Potentiality- represent the thermodynamic state of a system.It is the ability to release stored chemical energy.
Eg,Glucose can be viewed as an E-rich compound.I t reprezent thermodynamic potentiality-its reaction with oxygen is exergonic,but it doesnt occur at normal conditions.
2)This means that Enzymes control the rates at which certain reactions release their energy.
Kinetic control describes only how fast the reaction can proceed;the catalyzed reaction has lower activation energy and proceed faster,t hus the enzyme is exerts kinetic control over thermodynamic potentiality.
The term describes only the free energy between an uncatalyzed reaction and a catalyzed reaction.

Enzyme Reactions and Kinetics Q6.3: What kinetic parameter reveals the most information about how well an enzyme works? Describe this kinetic parameter in terms of the turnover number and the Michaelis constant and provide an explanation for why triosephosphate isomerase is considered to be 100,000 better than pepsin when this kinetic parameter is used to compare these two enzymes.

We recently used an enzyme in the laboratory: lactase. I have also often used the metaphor "Goldilocksian" to describe the catalysts we call enzymes. Our results in our experiments did not exactly show the traditional relations of enzymes to different levels of pH and temperature. Thus, I provide here a "theoretical" set of data (closer to what would be seen with more ideal conditions).

We have just enough time to get our bearings when we see a huge enzyme (called hexokinase) closing in. We are wrapped into the active site of the enzyme. Your classmate sitting on Carbon #6 is brutally launched as the enzyme removes a phosphoryl group from ATP and attaches it to the carbon. We are released from the enzyme and the molecule on which we ride is now Glucose-6-phosphate. What is this type of active site binding called? What type...
