Determining the shapes of amino acids

Reference no: EM13675255

Determining the Lewis structures of small compounds is the first step towards determining the molecular shapes of larger and larger molecules. Determining the shapes of amino acids, proteins (enzymes), etc. have tremendous benefits. Explain what are the benefits of knowing their shapes? Define what is the lock-and-key model or the induced-fit model for enzymes? Define why is it important in drug design?
