Some thing then ase. So if the substrate was called B the enzyme would B+ase, Base. Or substrate Z, the enzyme would be Z+ase, Zase. Some examples, amylase, maltase, catalase, sucrase. That is the most common naming, but it is not ALWAYS the case.

What does enzymes do to a reaction?

Enzymes are major biological molecules that are important for the metabolic processes that sustain life (anabolic= endergonic, nonspontaneous; catabolic= exergonic, spontaneous; anabolic processes+catabolic processes=metabolism). Enzymes' main function in chemical reactions is to catalyze them, or speed them up (i.e. they are catalysts). While most types of enzymes are proteins, there are a few RNA enzymes known as ribozymes. Enzymes almost always end with the suffix -ase.
