Enzyme's Function

Enzymes help speed up chemical reactions in the human body. They are essential for respiration, digesting food, muscle and nerve function, among thousands of other roles. There are different types of reactions that enzyme does.

Enzyme's structure

Enzymes are proteins comprised of amino acids linked together in one or more polypeptide chains. This sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain is called the primary structure. This, in turn, determines the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme, including the shape of the active site.

What is the allosteric site

Allosteric site is a region of an enzyme that allows activator or inhibitor molecules to bind to the enzyme that either activate or inhibit enzyme activity.

New cards
26
New cards

What is the active site

Active site is a region of an enzyme where substrate molecules bind and catalyze the reaction resulting in the production of particular products.

New cards
27
New cards

Explain the mechanism enzyme functioning

An enzyme attracts substrates to its active site, catalyzes the chemical reaction by which products are formed, and then allows the products to dissociate (separate from the enzyme surface). The combination formed by an enzyme and its substrates is called the enzyme–substrate complex.

Explain and illustrate enzyme impact on the rate of reactions

Enzymes will increase the rate of a chemical reaction by reducing the activation energy needed to make the reaction get started. Enzymes also speed up the rate of the reaction.
