Enzymes are biologic polymers that catalyze the chemical reactions that make life as we know it possible. The presence and maintenance of a complete and balanced set of enzymes is essential for the breakdown of nutrients to supply energy and chemical building blocks; the assembly of those building blocks into proteins‚ DNA‚ membranes‚ cells‚ and tissues; and the harnessing of energy to power cell motility‚ neural function‚ and muscle contraction. With the exception of catalytic RNA molecules‚ or

Lab: Inhibiting the Action of Catechol Oxidase By: Kimberly G. Introduction: In this lab‚ Mr. Greene ’s sixth period AP Biology class split into groups "to investigate inhibition of enzyme activity by specific chemicals called inhibitors" (1). Group three pondered this lab ’s inhibitor‚ phenylthiourea (PTU). Is it a competitive inhibitor? That is an inhibitor that literally "competes" with the substrate by mimicking it‚ and thus "wins" the position at the active site of the enzyme. The blocked

Immobilized Enzyme Immobilized Enzyme * Enzymes which are attached to small bead made of alginate are called immobilized enzyme * However‚ whatever the nature of an immobilized enzyme‚ it must comprise two essential functions‚ namely the non-catalytic functions (NCF) that are designed to aid separation and the catalytic functions (CF) that are designed to convert the target compounds within the time and space desired * Immobilized enzymes might meet the increasing demand by manufacturers

Lab 1 Diffusion‚ Osmosis‚ and Water Potential of Glucose Problem: What effects will glucose have on diffusion‚ osmosis‚ and water potential? Background: All living things have certain requirements they must satisfy in order to remain alive. These include exchanging gases (usually CO2 and O2)‚ taking in water‚ minerals‚ and food‚ and eliminating wastes. These tasks ultimately occur at the cellular level‚ and require that molecules move through the membrane that surrounds the cell. There

There are many reasons why enzymes have such a high specificity. The first variable is an enzyme’s primary structure. A primary structure is just a combination of amino acids. There are twenty different amino acids that the primary structure can be created from. Every enzyme has a different order that the acids are placed in and each one has a different number or amino acids. The slightest change in this structure can affect a protein’s conformation and function. The secondary structure is a regular

Action of enzymes as catalysts in biochemical processes * Enzymes acts as catalyst and increase the rate of all the chemical reactions. * Enzymes are also described by two properties like all other catalysts. It composed of two main functions. * The first function is that‚ they increase the rate of chemical reactions by without consumed themselves or undergo any change or alteration in the reaction. . ( Zemitec et‚al 2008). * The second function is‚ they increase reaction rates
