Transition State - Implications For Enzymatic Catalysis

Implications For Enzymatic Catalysis

One way in which enzymatic catalysis proceeds is by stabilizing the transition state through electrostatics. By lowering the energy of the transition state, it allows a greater population of the starting material to attain the energy needed to overcome the transition energy and proceed to product.
