Question

Choose the correct alternative from the following:

Answer 1

If a temperature change caused the shape of the active site to be altered, it would impact the enzyme's ability to bind its substrate. Given that the enzyme's active site is designed to bind specifically to its substrate, any alteration in its shape can prevent the substrate from fitting into the active site. This process is called "denaturation."

It seems the process is enzymatic digestion or breakdown of dipeptides into amino acids.

Therefore, if the active site is altered due to a temperature change:
B. The dipeptide would digest slower or not at all.
