What term is used to describe enzymes that have different chemical structures but which catalyze the same reactions?
Which of the following reaction types is not catalyzed by cobalamin enzymes?
Which of these describes the protein myoglobin?
Which of the following correctly describes an allosteric enzyme?
Which of the following statements about ribosomes is false?
Which of these is not a function of membrane proteins?

Hemoglobin is an important component of red blood cells that allows for efficient delivery of oxygen from the lungs to tissues throughout the body. Without hemoglobin, oxygen would not be able to dissolve in the blood well enough to meet the metabolic needs of tissues. Hemoglobin is well-suited to this function because its affinity for oxygen varies depending on its chemical environment. Which of the following situations would cause a rightward shift on the oxygen dissociation curve for hemoglobin?
Generally speaking, proteins have many important functions in living organisms. Which of the following is not a potential function of proteins?
Which of the following is not a characteristic of chymotrypsin?
