The suffix -ase indicates an enzyme, e.g. proteinase, dehydrogenase, hydrogenase, polymerase.
The general name for these enzymes is proteases
Nope, it's an element. It's also a co-factor in something I can't remember the name of... However, definitely NOT an enzyme. Enzymes have to be proteins.
Part of an enzyme's name is usually derived from the reaction it catalyzes.
An enzyme that usually ends in the suffix "-ase" is called an enzyme.
Enzymes are organic molecules that are highly specific catylists for biological chemical reactions. Enzymes are not permanently changed by the reactions that they catalyze, although the may transiently change shape a little during the reaction. At the end of the reaction, the enzyme is the same shape that it was at the beginning.
Scientists support the "lock and key" model below for how an enzyme speeds up chemical reactions.The letters "ASE" at the end of words help us identify enzymes.And their you have it.
Eventually, when we found an "Enz" term, we can consider that is referring to an enzyme. Now, by the Enzyme Commission (a special commission of the International Union of Biochemistry), many enzymes have been named by adding the suffix "-ase" to the name of their substrate or to a word or phrase describing their activity.

Enzymes speed up chemical reactions that take place in cells. They are usually named from the reaction that they catalyze.
Enzymes belong to a class of proteins called "biocatalysts" and do not have a single scientific name. They are named based on the substrate they act upon and end with the suffix "-ase." For example, the enzyme that breaks down proteins is called protease.
An enzyme is typically identified by its recommended name as approved by the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB). This name is based on the enzyme's function or substrate specificity and is usually structured as "Name-of-Substrate hydrolase" or "Function-type Enzyme." Additionally, enzymes are classified by a unique Enzyme Commission (EC) number based on the reaction they catalyze.
it depends. If you're talking about the origin of the name, then it's probably greek, or latin.
