Enzyme having different molecular arrangement but similar functions is
Or
Enzymes which are slightly different in molecular structure but can perform identical activity are called

Options

A. homoenzymes
B. isoenzymes
C. apoenzymes
D. coenzymes

Answer

B

Explanation

Isoenzyrnes (analogous enzymes) are multiple molecular forms of same enzyme with same substrate activity and found in the same organism These enzymes are formed by different genes, have different `K_(m)` constants for their substrates and operate at different pH. About 100 enzymes are known to have isoenzynies, e.g. LDH (Lacto-Dehydrogenase acting on pyruvate to form lactate) has 5 isoenzymes in man, `alpha`-amylase. in wheat has 16 isoenzymes.
