| M-( runs the command insert-parentheses

| Enclose following arg sexps in parentheses.
| Leave point after open-paren.
| A negative arg encloses the preceding arg sexps instead.
| No argument is equivalent to zero: just insert `()' and leave point 
between.
| If `parens-require-spaces' is non-nil, this command also inserts a space
| before and after, depending on the surrounding characters.
| If region is active, insert enclosing characters at region boundaries.
