What happen to a denaturated enzyme regarding its functionality? How that result can be explained with the help of the lock and key model?
Answer:
According to the lock and key model, the enzyme functionality depends entirely on the integrity of the activation center, a molecular region with specific spatial characteristics. After the denaturation the spatial conformation of the protein is modified, the activation center is destroyed and the enzyme loses its catalytic activity.
