← ScienceWhich consequence results when product concentration reduces significantly in reversible enzymatic reactions?
A)Reaction shifts forward, increasing turnover✓
B)Reaction shifts reverse into inhibition
C)Enzyme active site configuration changes
D)Catalyst effectiveness reaches equilibrium
💡 Explanation
Lower product induces a forward reaction because the Le Chatelier's principle shifts the enzyme-substrate equilibrium. Therefore, substrate conversion acceleration occurs rather than reversal, because the concentration gradient favors decreased saturation from available active sites.
