Many enzymes are proteins and their specific binding properties to a substrate
depend on their overall molecular shape or "conformation"
Lock and Key Mechanism for Activity

Enzyme structure
proteins are (essential/nonessential) for the structure, function, and regulation of
body's tissues
Give this one a try later!
essential
, An amino acid is a compound having both a _____ group (COOH) and an ____ group
(NH2)
Give this one a try later!
carboxyl and amino
All naturally occurring a-amino acids, except _____, are chiral and the 'L' stereoisomer
Give this one a try later!
glycine
protein fragments that are two amino acids long (glycine and alanine for example)
Give this one a try later!
Dipeptides
Has a single chain of 153 amino acids: carries O2 from the blood vessels to the
muscles and stores it until needed
No quaternary structure (one chain)
Has Fe II containing heme unit in each chain which binds O2
