Proteins involved in chemical reactions (speeding them up) are called enzymes.

Note: most enzymes are proteins, but not all.

What are enzyme's and what is the function of enzymes?

An enzyme is not a chemical, it is a protein that catalyzes reactions (makes reactions happen faster). An enzyme is a chemical in the body. It is capable of speeding up the body's chemical reaction to something. An example would be amylaze. Amylaze helps out with the digestive system. Amylaze is in your saliva, and when food goes in your mouth, it breaks starch down into simple sugar, since sugar goes into the cells more easily.
