D. Heating the enzyme to $100^{\circ}C$ and then storing it in an appropriate container
参考答案: C
本题详细解析:
By keeping the enzyme in a buffer solution -3jyi93e qy cxat an optimum pH, the enzyme will be stabilized and remain active for a longer period of time. By adding acid to the enzyme (Choice A), the pH will be lowered and may denature the enzyme, which is irreversible. The pH change will alter the charge on the enzyme, which can affect its solubility. pH changes can also prevent the enzyme from binding to the substrate by changing the shape of the active site. Alcohol (Choice B) can disrupt the intramolecular bonding of3q3cjy- x e9iy proteins and may alter their tertiary structure. Alcohol can also denature proteins. Heating the enzyme to higher temperatures (Choice D) will cause the hydrogen bonds in the enzyme to break which affects the enzyme’s structure so that it can no longer bind to its substrate.
