Rennin, it was one of my science questions :-)

Usually an enzyme is named after it's function.
It adds a phosphate (usually from ATP) to another enzyme.

Adults need a particular enzyme in their stomach to tolerate lactose. Babies are born with that enzyme. It turns off automatically in a number of children when they get to be about six years old. As a result they become lactose intolerant. Height and weight have nothing to do with lactose intolerance but the lack of an enzyme. Some people lactose intolerant people drink milk with a bacterium added which adds that enzyme. Others eat milk in the form of cheese or yogurt.

enzyme catalysis is usually homogeneous because the substrate and enzyme are present in aqueous solution
The rate of a reactions usually increases when catalyzed by an enzyme. For maximum rate of activity, the enzyme needs optimal conditions.
Cold temperatures have a drastic effect on an enzyme's activity level. Cold temperatures usually dramatically slow down an enzyme's activity.
Sucrase is the enzyme (called a disaccharidase) that digests sucrose, the major disaccharide in table sugar.
