No, freezing does not denature enzymes, however; it does slow the rate at which they are able to catalyse reactions. Denaturation is a permanent change in the conformation of an enzyme that renders it useless while freezing an enzyme only results in a temporary change.
I don't think so as industrially in order to last, enzyme solutions are kept frozen and then defrosted immediately prior to use (not any later in order to optimise their activity).
no. It may do strange things to them, curl them up into different shapes and all. But they will redefine themselves on re-heating or thawing and perform perfectly well again.
Certainly. Anything can freeze
No,they are not
Heat
Affinity decreases as the enzyme's geometry is modified by being denatured. It will no longer properly fit the active site.
An enzyme is a folded protein. When this folded protein becomes denatured, it essentially stops working. It can not function due to high temperatures or wrong pH.
Shape. When an enzyme is overheated the bonds between molecules that make up the enzyme breaks, this changes the shape of the enzyme's active site. And as the enzyme is highly specific and would only work on one substrate which fits its active site, the enzyme will be totally denatured and won't activate anymore if it loses its shape.
An example of something being denatured is is when an enzyme is working at a particular temperature. If the temperature goes too high, then it will destroy the enzyme and this is called denatured. I hope this helps!

An enzyme is called a denatured enzyme once it changes its shape.
When an enzyme is heated it is denatured, which means that it can no longer function.
When an enzyme is denatured the active site which allows it to catalyze reactions is destroyed, rendering the enzyme useless. This process is irreversible but the remains are recycled to form new enzymes.
When a protein is denatured, this can cause an enzyme to lose its confirmation.

The concentration of hydrogen ions in solution affects the enzyme activity. Each enzyme has maximal efficiency under an optimum pH. Since pH is one of the factors for the denaturation of proteins, if an enzyme is submitted to a pH level under which it is denatured there will be no enzymatic activity.
The enzyme gets denatured or inactive.
