An intracellular enzyme is an enzyme that is inside a cell that must be activated by a specific molecule. Because it is inside the cell, an average signal molecule cannot go through and activate it. Intracellular enzymes are activated by a hydrophobic material such as steroid molecules which can go through the cell membrane and activate the intracellular enzyme.
