{"question": "A mutation in a bacterial enzyme changed a previously polar amino acid into a nonpolar amino acid. This amino acid was located at a site distant from the enzyme\u2019s active site. How might this mutation alter the enzyme\u2019s substrate specificity?", "options": ["By changing the enzyme\u2019s pH optimum", "By changing the enzyme\u2019s location in the cell", "By changing the shape of the protein", "An amino acid change away from the active site cannot alter the enzyme\u2019s substrate specificity."], "answer": "C"}
