3D Molecular Enzymes In Action Kit (6 Group Set) Due 4/30/2024

Models give words meaning. These colorful foam pieces with intuitive shapes let your students experience enzymes in action before they even know any vocabulary. Collaboration and discourse naturally occur between learners as they figure out what it means for a protein to be a catalyst. The easy to use pieces allows small groups of students to:

• Explore how enzymes interact with substrate
• Investigate the active site of an enzyme and its specificity
• Simulate competitive and allosteric inhibition
• Contrast the lock-and-key and induced fit theories using evidence
• Examine how an enzyme may affect activation energy

Excellent at revealing student thinking, this kit can complement traditional classroom assignments like the catylase or amylase labs.
