Which statement BEST describes what occurs to a molecule of the enzyme trypsin AFTER it binds to a molecule of protein?

A) After binding to a protein molecule, the trypsin molecule is destroyed and must be replaced.
B) The combined trypsin and protein molecule is utilized for energy to power cellular functions.
C) After binding to the protein molecule, trypsin is converted to a lipid and used for energy storage.
D) The trypsin molecule is not chemically altered by the reaction with protein and may be used again.

 

Ans:

D)The trypsin molecule is not chemically altered by the reaction with protein and may be used again.

▪Trypsin is an enzyme which catalyses the reaction of proteolysis in humans.

▪Proteins binds to active sites of the enzyme and then it cleaves the peptide bonds of proteins. Resulting product is released out.

▪Trypsin is still unaltered and binds to next protein to cleave it. It is reused.
