1. a. quantum tunneling
Quantum tunneling is a means whereby a catalyst can lower the activation energy of a reaction.
2. a. binds substrates in a manner that facilitates the formation of a product
An enzyme acts as a catalyst in a reaction, by binding substrates in order to form products
3. c. involves amino acids that are brought into close proximity by extensive protein folding and may require a prosthetic group such as a metal ion
4. d. bond distortion, proton transfer, and electron transfer
bond distortion, proton transfer, and electron transfer are three mechanisms of substrate activation.

1 point Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an essential cofactor for many metabolic reactions. Lack of the precursor to NAD+, niacin, results in the human disease called pellagra, thus humans have evolved salvage pathways to breakdown and re-synthesize NAD+ when needed. Below is the chemical structure of NAD+. Enzymes catalyze reactions in parts of the protein called an active site. This portion of the protein forms favorable weak interactions with the substrate and stabilize the transition state, which is crucial...
Part A - Overview of enzyme structure and enzymatic reactions Enzymes are large globular proteins. Much of their three dimensional shape is the result of interactions between the R (variable) groups of their amino acids. The active site is the portion of the enzyme that will interact with the substrate the molecule that the enzyme acts upon. The nature and arrangement of amino acids in the active site make each enzyme specific to a substrate and to the reaction it...
