New cards

What happens with increased temperature?

Increased kinetic energy of enzyme and substrate -> increased movement -> increased chance of enzyme and substrate collisions -> increased chance of successful collisions forming ESC allowing product to be formed

2

New cards

What is the optimum temperature for most enzymes?

40 degrees

3

New cards

What happens above the optimum temperature?

Kinetic energy (vibrations) break H bonds -> change shape of AS -> substrate no longer complimentary to AS -> ESC cannot be formed -> no product formed

4

New cards

What can denatured enzymes not do?

Cannot form ESC
