What is the non-protein portion required by some enzymes for proper function?
Some enzymes do indeed have non-protein components. One really good example of this is the ribosome. Ribosomes are the enzymes responsible for translating mRNA into protein. Ribosomes are made up of both protein components and rRNA components. rRNA stands for ribosomal RNA.
Enzymes are PH sensetive Exactly what does this mean?
They only function when the acidity or alkalinity of their environment is at a certain level.
If your body temperature is low how will the enzymes work?
Enzymes require certain temperatures to function. They become denatured if the temperature is too high or too low. If an enzyme is denatured, it can no longer function. Therefore, if your body temperature is too low, the enzymes will become denatured and cease to function. The process of denaturation is on a continuum, however. If the temperature is slightly lower than normal, but not too low, the enzymes will still function, but at a lower rate.
What is the function of cofactors and co-enzymes?
co-enzymes are organic molecules that are required by certain enzymes to carry out catalysis while co-factors are often classified as inorganic substances that are required for, or increase the rate of, catalysis.
Is an enzymes function dependent on temperature and pH?
Every enzymes has its own optimum pH and temperature, where it shows higher activity (pH:it is very specific; temperature:mostly not more than 30-37degree C). Above or below this situation the enzymes activity may differs exponentially due to the biochemical changes.
What are the 3 metabolic functions of the kidneys?
production and secretion of enzymes & hormones metabolic conversion acid base balance
Function of plasma?
1) it serves as a source of nutrition 2) it regulates the blood volume 3) it prepares anti toxins 4) it helps to balance the acid base balance
What is the main function a lysosomes?
A lysosome is a membrane-bound vesicle filled with digestive enzymes that can break down worn-out cell components or materials brought into the cell
Denatured enzymes are the same as?
Denatured enzymes are the same as enzymes that can no longer function.
Do enzymes contiune to function after being frozen or boiled?
I am not sure if they work after being frozen sorry. But, once enzymes reach a certain high temperature they will denature causing them to become inactive. This process is irreversible. So therefore after boiling an enzyme it will no longer function.
What function do co-enzymes have in respiration?
Coenzyme-A is the most active metabolic enzyme in the human body. Fermentation is a process whereby a cell can achieve redox balance.
Why are vitamins important to enzymes and what is this relationship called?
First, not every Enzyme needs vitmains for function but a lot. Vitamins serve as special components in an enzyme or a protein and fullfill functions that cannot be done by simple polypeptides.
