Question

During a covalent catalysis a Schiff-base intermediate forms between A. Two parts of the enzyme (e.g. carbonyl of peptide backbone with -NH2 of the N-terminus) B. Two parts of the substrate as long as a carbonyl and an amino group are present. C. A substrate and different parts of the enzyme. D. An amino acid side chain at the active site of the enzyme and the substrate
