Enzymes are simply proteins that make reactions faster or simply facilitate them. They are composed of ssingle or multiple poly-peptide molecules that has an active site. The active site is where the main enzymatic action happens. A substrate enters and is either modified by the enzyme or it modifies the enzyme, enabling it to perform other functions. Although it is a protein, it cannot be classified as structural protein.
What else can I help you with?
Enzymes work by what-?
Enzymes work by reducing the energy of activation.
How are lypids and proteins similar?
First of all, lypids are supposed to be lipids. Lipids, phospholipids, make up the membrane. Proteins, also work for the cell. Proteins do ALOT of jobs. There are hundreds and hundreds of different types of proteins. Enzymes protect the cell and so on.
Do enzymes produce proteins?
Enzyme are not producing proteins but they catalyses the steps in proteins synthesis. Proteins are produced in ribosomes by amino acids and RNA molecules such as tRNA and mRNA. Enzyme such as peptidyl synthetase catalyse the prptide bond formation between amino acids.
What enzymes speeds up the breakdown of protein in food?
Protease enzymes, such as pepsin and trypsin, are responsible for breaking down proteins in food into smaller peptides and amino acids. These enzymes work in the stomach and small intestine to facilitate the digestion of proteins.
Does enzyme work?
Yes, enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts to speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. Enzymes lower the activation energy needed for reactions to occur, making processes more efficient.
If all enzymes are proteins but all proteins are not enzymes then what makes enzymes different fr?
Enzymes are proteins, but as you can imagine, different parts of the body need different types of enzymes to work efficiently. Can you imagine the enzymes which break down food in the process of digestion being replaced by the enzymes which assist respiration or photosynthesis? It wouldn't work. Each type of enzyme controls different chemical processes.
What control proteins that build cells and tissues and work as enzymes?
Genes!
What controls proteins that builds cells and tissues and work as enzymes?
GENES. (:
Controls proteins that build cells and tissues and work as enzymes?
genes
What are two functions of protein in a living organism?
1. Proteins make up all visible characteristics of organisms (hair, skin, fur, scales, feathers) 2. Muscles and bones are made of protein 3. Proteins are used to create enzymes which regulate and do work
Who was the scientist that proved that not all enzymes are proteins?
The scientist who proved that not all enzymes are proteins was Leonor Michaelis and Maud Menten in 1913. Their work on enzyme kinetics showed that enzymes can also be composed of RNA molecules, known as ribozymes. This discovery challenged the prevailing notion at the time that all enzymes were proteins.
How proteins work?
Proteins work by interactions. Enzymes can interact with its substrate and can cause chemical changes. Hormones can interact with its receptors to trigger signalling events.
Enzymes work by what-?
Enzymes work by reducing the energy of activation.

How are proteins involved in DNA replications?
Proteins are the enzymes, such as DNA polymerase, which actually to the work to replicate the DNA and help to maintain its integrity.
