What is the difference between the ES complex and the EP complex?

What is the difference between the ES complex and the EP complex?

Options

  1. AThe ES complex is the substrate alone
  2. BThe EP complex is the final product of the reaction
  3. CThe ES complex is the short-lived intermediate state
  4. DThe EP complex is the enzyme-substrate complex

Correct answer

B. The EP complex is the final product of the reaction

Step-by-step solution

Each enzyme (E) has a substrate (S) binding site in its molecule so that a highly reactive enzyme-substrate complex (ES) is produced. This complex is short-lived and dissociates into its product(s) P and the unchanged enzyme with an intermediate formation of the enzyme-product complex (EP).
