Are all proteins enzymes Explain your answer?

No. All enzymes are proteins but not all proteins are enzymes. Muscle tissue is made of protein but it is not made of enzymes.


How can you decrease your muscle enzymes?

Decrease muscle enzymesWhy do you want to decrease your muscle enzymes? Be more specific. Enzymes are not bad at all and are very important to life. Enzymes are also extremely specific chmical catalysts that would not find themselves in the wrong place breaking down something unneccesary in the body. I think you watch too much TV. obviously whoever it is that thinks you watch too much TV doesn't know as much about biology as he/she thinks he/she does.A high muscle enzyme count is indicative of muscle damage. The high enzymes aren't the issue, the muscle damage is. eHow wrote an article about how to lower them.


Does a skeletal muscle fiber contain many nuclei?

Skeletal muscle fibers contain numerous nuclei. This is used to produce large amounts of the enzymes and structural proteins needed for muscle contraction.


How do enzymes affect your heart?

Enzymes are important for proper heart function. If heart muscle is damaged, the enzyme levels rise, and this can be seen in blood work.

Why do physicians monitor a patient's enzyme levels if a heart attack has occurred?

Physicians monitor a patient's enzyme levels if they suspect that the patient is having a heart attack because changes happen over time in blood levels of heart enzymes indicate the heart muscle's health.


What are the enzymes produced by the esophagus?

The esophagus does not produce any enzymes. Even so, sometimes digestive enzymes produced in the stomach can make their way into the esophagus due to a hernia or a condition called gastroesophagic reflux.


Cardiac enzymes and troponin elevate what?

Cardiac enzymes and troponin levels do not elevate anything. Rather, when you have a heart attack (MI), they are elevated. Unlike damage to any other muscle in your body, damage to the cardiac muscle causes the release of specific cardiac enzymes. Therefore, if they are elevated, you had damage to your heart (i.e. heart attack). I disagree with the above: If both are elevated then you may have had a heart attack but, if cardiac enzymes alone are elevated and not troponin levels then you will not have had a heart attack. That's my personal experience. Troponin levels are now considered a more accurate indicator of damage to the heart muscle as a result of a heart attack than cardiac enzymes which can apply to any other muscle group rather than the heart. In fact to use the word 'cardiac' in this context is misleading because if you sprain your ankle for instance 'cardiac' enzymes will be released into the blood! So, where is the connection between damage to your ankle and that of your heart? Both enzymes therefore need to be elevated to indicate heart damage reliably.


How can a human eat food and turn it into muscle?

Humans can eat food and turn it into muscle by means of a very complex series of biochemical reactions that are ultimately controlled by DNA, through the synthesis of protein enzymes.


Is protein good for the body?

YES! Lean protein such as turkey, chicken, fish, filet mignon, are ESSENTIAL to the development and maintenance of muscle mass.


Do enzyme supplements help me while bodybuilding?
