∙ 10y agoAn enzyme's name is often derived from its substrate or the chemical reaction it catalyzes, with the word ending in -ase. for eg lactase works on lactose

What do you say if one enzyme controls one chemical reaction?
Enzyme is specific
What factors affect enzyme production?
you can say enzyme reaction depends on ph, temp
What is the Difference between enzyme and regulatory enzyme?
An enzyme is one kind of protein that can catalyze a specific reaction whereas a regulatory enzyme is the enzyme which can regulate a series of reaction which undergo in the living organism. So we can say every enzyme is not a regulatory one but the regulatory enzymes are obviously a special kind of enzyme.
Why their structure shape is so important (hintactive site)?
The shape of the active site is very important because it determines the efficiency of the specific enzyme. If an active site shifts, the substrate can no longer bind to an enzyme's active site, therefore causing inefficiency. We say that the enzyme is undergoing denaturation.
What kind of molecule is an enzyme-?
The type of molecule that is an enzyme is a protein molecule.
What Factors affecting enzyme?
you can say enzyme reaction depends on ph, temp

What can you do to regain the activity of the enzyme?
The enzyme is inactive at this point. New enzyme must be added to regain enzyme activity
How does an enzyme recognize its substrate?
On one part of an enzyme is an active site (which is what the substrate binds to) that is shaped a certain way, say a triangle. A substrate that's in the shape of a square won't fit onto the triangle/the enzyme - but a substrate that has an indent in the shape of a triangle will. The way an enzyme recognizes its substrate is if it can attach itself to the enzyme's active site.
What to enzymes do in an enzyme-substrate?
in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .
Does enzyme has proteins?
An enzyme is a protein
What is the active site for an enzyme?
The place where the substrate and the enzyme meet to allow the enzyme to function.
What is an angiotensin converting enzyme?
An angiotensin converting enzyme is an enzyme which catalyzes the creation of angiotensin.
What enzyme is responsible for fat digestion?
the lipase enzyme :)
