Discussion
J.J Berzelius
` Recognized the existence of catalyst in biological
materials in 1835` Coined the term catalysis
` He noted that potatoes contained something thatcatalyzed the breakdown of starch and suggested that
all natural products are formed under the influenceof such catalysis.

Louis Pasteur
` Introduced the chemical nature of biological catalyst.
` He demonstrated the fermentation(anaerobicbreakdown of sugar to CO2 and ethanol), occurredin the presence of living cells that it contained hadbeen killed by heat.

Edward Buchner
` discovered by accident that fermentation wascatalyzed by clear juice that he had prepared bygrinding yeast with the sand and filtering out theunbroken cells.
` Looking for a way to preserve the juice, he addedsugar but the sugar break down rapidly and the
mixture frothed with CO2 .` This discovery made it possible to explore metabolic
processes such as fermentation in a greatly simplifiedsystem.

James Sumner` Proved that enzymes are proteins
` succeeded in purifying the crystallizing the enzyme ureasefrom beans.
John Northop` generalized Sumners conclusion by isolating and
characterizing a series of digestive enzymes and later ongave birth to thousands of different enzymes beingpurified which provide and immediate answers to atomicresolutions
` almost all of these molecules have proved to be proteins.

Enzymes
` synthesized in a living cell
` These speeds up reactions more efficiently thaninorganic catalyst since these will decrease the energyof activation more than organic catalyst do.
` The effectiveness of enzymes as catalyst is
demonstrated by the high reaction rates atphysiological temperatures

What are the clinical significances ofenzymes?` Enzymes are substances that catalyze biochemical
reactions.Although they actively participate in thereaction, they are not changed in the process. They are
almost always found in cells so any increase in their bloodlevels would indicate cellular destruction. These are
important clinical enzymes which are measured in clinicalchemistry to determine the presence or absence of a
pathologic conditions.

CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF ENZYMES
1. Peroxidase breaks down hydrogen peroxide in the body toavoid its build up in the body which can be harmful in the body2.Acid phosphatase (ACP) is primarily present in redblood cells (RBC), breast milk, and semen. It is tested to
determine the occurrence of prostate cancer, breastcancer and some red blood cell pathologic conditions.3. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is found in bones,kidneys, liver, placenta, intestines and platelets.Elevated ALP levels would indicate bone and liverdiseases like osteomalacia, liver cirrhosis, and the like.
4. Creatine phosphokinase (CPK) is found in thebrain, heart, and muscles. The significance of elevatedresults therefore are diseases related to the heart, brainand muscles.

What are the clinical significances of
enzymes?
4. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is nicknamed the"ubiquitous enzyme" because it is almost present in all cells inthe body. It is found in red blood cells, cardiac muscles, liver,lungs, spleen and kidneys. It is elevated in liver diseases andheart conditions like myocardial infarction (MI).5. Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) is an alcoholicmarker. Its elevation indicates liver disease and chronicalcoholism. It is only elevated after prolonged usage ofalcohol.6. Alanine amino transferase (ALT) is a liver enzyme. It ismarkedly elevated in liver disease.
7. Aspartate amino transferase (AST) is a cardiac enzyme.It is significantly elevated in myocardial infarction, and slightlyelevated in liver disease. CK, LDH, and AST are the threecardiac enzymes.

What are the characteristics ofenzymes?` Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions.
` Without enzymes, they would be too slow to sustain life.
` Body is essentially a chemical processing plant, so enzymes
are crucial in every aspect of physiology.Characteristics of enzymes which enable them to be effective:
` Enzymes are unaffected by the reactions that they
speed up.
` Enzymes are highly specific.
` Enzymes can speed up the same chemical reaction
going inopposite directions.

Discussion
An enzyme is` considered a catalyst, a substance that speeds up
chemical reactions without itself undergoing anychange.
` There are factors that will affect its activity namely:pH, substrate concentration and temperature.
-
8/3/2019 ENZYMES, This is It!
29/47
Enzymes` Stable only over a limited range ofpH.
` The effects of pH can reflect the pKa of ionizinggroups, on either enzyme or the substrate
` May also undergo changes in conformation when pHis varied.
` Depending upon the severity of these changes,
activity may or may not be restored when theenzyme is returned to its optimal pH.

30/47
Enzymes` Substrate concentration influence the rate of an enzyme
catalyzed reaction. Initially, the rate is responsive toincrease in substrate concentration.
` The maximum rate(Vmax) occurs because theenzyme is saturated with substrate and cannot workany faster under conditions imposed.

31/47
Enzyme` Like all chemical reactions, enzyme catalyzed reaction
rate increase with temperature.
` However, because enzymes are proteins, there is atemperature limit beyond which enzyme becomesvulnerable to denaturation.
` Enzyme catalyzed reaction has an optimum
temperature, usually range 25 to 40 degrees celsius.Above or below these values the reaction rate will belower.
