The effects of temperature, PH value, substrate & enzyme concentration and those of inhibitors and cofactors are of particular biological interest and can be summarized as follows:-
... by the fact that the configuration of the enzyme matches the shape of the substrate over a relatively large area called active center of the enzyme. When enzyme and substrate molecules collide in the correct orientation, the substrates become attached ...

Catalase has to be very fast acting to keep the hydrogen peroxide levels low, and it is one of the fastest acting enzymes known. It catalyses the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, liberating oxygen gas as effervescence, each molecule ...
