The suffix -ase means an enzyme while the root of the word means the substrate that the enzyme is involved in. For example: sucrase is involved in the breaking down of the sugar sucrose.
When an enzyme is heated it is denatured, which means that it can no longer function.
-ase
-ase
Lactase. (the suffix- ase means an enzyme)
It means enzyme.
Enzyme will reduce the activation energy of the reaction, thereby the speed of the reaction increases or acting as a catalyst.
The Latin root "ase" means "enzymes" or "having the quality of." It is commonly used in scientific terms related to enzymes, such as "lipase" or "oxidase."
False. Low Km actually indicates a strong binding of the enzyme to the substrate, resulting in a high affinity and low velocity at low substrate concentrations. High Km means a weak binding of the enzyme to the substrate and requires higher substrate concentrations for the enzyme to achieve maximum velocity.
if there is any inborn errors with enzyme B means, there will be a malfunctioning... so here the enzyme can not convert comp 1 to comp 2... so automatically enzyme C wont be having any function!!
The suffix -ase means an enzyme. For example lactase breaks down lactose, a milk sugar.
The major thing that has an effect on an enzyme is heat. If the enzyme is exposed to a large amount of heat than it denatures, which means that it is no longer functional. Enzymes work at their best at an OPTIMUM range, that is at about 30-35 degrees Celsius. The enzyme will denature at about 47-50 degrees Celsius.
A common suffix for enzyme names is "-ase". Two common enzymes are amylase and lactase. Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up reactions.
