Enzymes
Metabolism
• Reactions in your body
What are Enzymes?
• Protein catalyst • Act on substrates
(reactants) • End in ASE
– Ex. Lactase digest lactose • HOW?

Enzyme Substrate Complex
Enzymes are Specific!
• Active Site• Induced Fit
Enzymes can be REUSED
• Product is release
E1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E6 A B C D E F G
A product can be used as a substrate for another enzyme
Factors Effecting Enzymatic Speed
• Temperature • pH• Substrate concentration • Enzyme Concentration
WILL DISCUSS these 2 WHEN WE GET BACK (IN OUR LAB)
Temperature• Enzymes are PROTEIN • Heat too high they can
denature
pH
• Enzymes work best at an ‘optimal’ pH
• Proteins can denature
Substrate Concentration
• The more substrate the more reaction
• Once all of the enzymes are being used the reaction cannot increase
Enzyme Concentration
• Control by phosphorylation
• Activate Add Phosphate (energy from ATP)
Enzyme Inhibition • Noncompetitive• Competitive
Feedback Inhibition
• Activity of enzyme can be regulated by its end product
Enzyme Cofactors
Help enzymes function
– Inorganic • Copper, Zinc, Iron
– Organic- Coenzymes • Vitamins
