enzyme structure

Enzymes are biological catalysts that drive essential biochemical reactions in the body, and the image provided illustrates the steps in an enzymatic reaction based on the induced-fit model. This visual guide, broken down into four stages, demonstrates how enzymes interact with substrates to produce products, highlighting the dynamic conformational changes at the enzyme’s active site. By understanding these steps, we uncover the anatomical and physical principles behind enzyme function, offering valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms that sustain life.
