FLASHCARDS: 2.5 - Enzymes
Flashcards do conjunto (11)
- 1Enzymea globular protein that works as a catalyst and speeds up reactions
- 2What does an enzyme convert?an enzyme converts substrates into products
- 3Active sitean active site is a special region on an enzyme where substrates bind for enzymes to catalyze reactions
- 4Property of enzyme-substrate specificitythe property where the active site is very specific to its substrates because of its shape, therefore, enzymes are only allowed to catalyze certain reactions, a substrate can only bind if it fits in the active site
- 5How does an enzyme catalyst occur?1. Substrate binds to active site
2. Substrates change into different chemical substances (products)
3. Products separate from active site, leaving it vacant for next reaction - 6Collisionthe coming together of a substrate molecule and the active site
- 7Denaturationa permanent change in the enzyme where the structure of the enzyme, including the active site, changes
- 8Immobilizationattachment of the enzymes to another material or into aggregations, so that movement of the enzyme is restricted
- 9Temperature (factor)
- 10pH (factor)
- 11Substrate concentration (factor)
