Which of these statements is false regarding transition states in enzymatic reactions?(a) They are more unstable than products(b) They have high energy(c) They have a lower energy than both substrate and product(d) An enzyme-substrate complex is formed during this periodThe question was posed to me in an interview for job.This interesting question is from Biomolecules topic in portion Biomolecules of Biology – Class 11

Answer»

Right option is (C) They have a lower energy than both SUBSTRATE and PRODUCT

The best I can explain: The transition state occurs during an enzymatic reaction when the substrate binds to the enzyme molecule in ORDER to be converted into a product, via the production of a HIGH energy enzyme-substrate complex.
