Enzyme lowers activation energy and aids substrate transition
Question asked:
“Enzyme tạo ra một con đường phản ứng có năng lượng hoạt hoá thấp hơn và tương tác với cơ chất tại trung tâm hoạt động, giúp cơ chất dễ đạt đến trạng thái chuyển tiếp hơn.”
Summary
Enzymes provide an alternative reaction pathway that lowers the activation energy required for a reaction. They bind substrates at their active sites, positioning them to facilitate formation of the transition state, thereby making it easier for the substrate to reach this high‑energy intermediate. This is a well‑established principle of enzymology.

The stress produced by such distortion of the substrate can further facilitate its conversion to the transition state by weakening critical bonds. Moreover, the transition state is stabilized by its tight binding to the enzyme, thereby lowering the required energy of activation.

Every day, trillions upon trillions of chemical reactions occur in our body to make essential metabolic processes occur. Enzymes are proteins that act upon substrate molecules and decrease the activation energy necessary for a chemical reaction to occur by stabilizing the transition state.

Kinetic isotope effects provide an experimental approach to transition state structure and a method for obtaining transition state analogues but, alone, do not inform how that transition state is reached. Enzyme structures with transition state analogues provide computational starting points near the transition state geometry.

The details of how such accelerations are orchestrated in the course of a process in which the enzyme encounters reactant molecules, may, in some cases, shepherd them through various intermediate states to the product molecule(s), and then releases the latter before launching a new catalytic cycle, have been a subject of research, speculation, and debate since the discovery of enzymes. One of the main conceptual tools for organizing the findings has been Pauling's insight (5) that an enzyme is a biomolecule that specifically binds and thus stabilizes the transition state of the target reaction.
- Enzymes lower activation energy | Writing in Biology
The free energy of the reactants and products do not change, just the threshold energy level needed for the reaction to commence. Enzymes can lower the activation energy of a chemical reaction in three ways. One of the ways the activation energy is lowered is having the enzyme bind two of the substrate molecules and orient them in a precise manner to encourage a reaction.
