Enzymes have active sites which only match specific substrates. The diagram shows how this works. In this example, the enzyme splits one molecule into two smaller ones, but other enzymes join ...

Motivated by this, the fledgling bioengineer and his team created a new material that retains the key structural features of the enzyme's natural substrate while still being simple enough to allow ...

Save guides, add subjects and pick up where you left off with your BBC account. The diagram below shows how an enzyme catalyses the breakdown of one substrate into two products.
