A change in an amino acid located distantly from the active site of an enzyme can affect the specificity of the enzyme towards its substrate by:
1. making the enzyme unstable
2. cause a relocation of the enzyme within a cell
3. changing the shape of the protein
4. changing the optimum pH and temperature values for the enzyme
Enzymes speed up the chemical reactions by:
1. Getting used up in the reaction
2. Formation of different products
3. Converting endothermic reactions to exothermic
4. Lowering activation energy
