    This document provides instructions for an assessment task involving the reaction mechanism of the enzyme lysozyme. Students are asked to complete the reaction mechanism by adding curved arrows between the steps. The steps involve: 1) Substrate binding to the active site of lysozyme, 2) Cleavage of the glycosidic bond producing an oxonium ion and product 1, 3) Bonding of the oxonium ion with Asp-52, and 4) Reaction with water to release product 2 and return the enzyme to its native state.

    Assessment Task 6.9

    Lysozyme is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of a glycoside (carbohydrate) through its (1,4) bond.
    Given below are series of reactions which serve as its reaction mechanism. Put the appropriate curve arrows
    to complete the mechanism.

    Step 1: Binding of the substrate to the active site of the enzyme.


    Step 2: Cleavage of the glycosidic bond, producing product 1 and oxonium ion.
    Step 3: Bonding of oxonium ion with Asp-52.

    Step 4: Reaction with water, release of the second product and return of enzyme to its native state.
