Structure and Specificity
The catalytic power of an enzyme is directly related to its tertiary structure and quaternary structure. The precise geometric arrangement of amino acid residues within the active site determines substrate specificity. Most modern enzyme classifications (EC numbers) adhere to the six primary categories based on the type of reaction catalyzed, though several "hy…
