Substrate
Active site
Induced fit
• The active site of the enzyme can lower an EA barrier by– Orienting substrates correctly– Straining substrate bonds– Providing a favorable microenvironment– Covalently bonding to the substrate

Concept 6.5: Regulation of enzyme activity helps control metabolism
• Chemical chaos would result if a cell’s metabolic pathways were not tightly regulated.
• A cell does this by switching on or off the genes that encode specific enzymes or by regulating the activity of enzymes.
