Reporter enzymes are enzymes that are covalently attached to an analyte in an immunoassay because of their ability to amplify a weak signal and increase detectability of this target molecule. They are generally used to report on antibody/antigen interactions. Reporter enzymes are used extensively in molecular Biology because they have particular characteristics that allow visual, spectrophotometric detection of these immune complexes. E.g. HorseRadish Peroxidase is a widely used reporter enzyme, it produces a colour, fluorimetric or luminescent derivative of the labelled analyte allowing it to be detected and quantified.

What can you do to regain the activity of the enzyme?
The enzyme is inactive at this point. New enzyme must be added to regain enzyme activity
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a what?
enzyme-substrate complex
An enzyme that cuts double-stranded DNA at specific nucleotide sequences?
Such an enzyme is called a restriction endonuclease
What enzyme does carboxypeptidase break down?
It is an enzyme...
Is adp enzyme?
No ADP is not an enzyme
How can a reporter enzyme monitor transformation of host cells by foreign DNA in addition to a selectable marker?
A reporter enzyme monitors transformation of host cells by foreign DNA in addition to a selectable marker through insertional inactivation. It differentiates recombinants from non recombinants.
What can you do to regain the activity of the enzyme?
The enzyme is inactive at this point. New enzyme must be added to regain enzyme activity

What to enzymes do in an enzyme-substrate?
in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .
How a reporter enzyme can be used to monitor transformation of host cells by foreign DNA in addition to a selectable marker?
reporter enzymes can differentiate recombinants from non- recombinants on the basis of their ability to produce specific color in the presence of a chromogenic substrate.[ ref. insertional inactivation of beta-galactosidase when rDNA is inserted and formation of colored and non colored colonies accordingly].
Does enzyme has proteins?
An enzyme is a protein
What is the active site for an enzyme?
The place where the substrate and the enzyme meet to allow the enzyme to function.
What is an angiotensin converting enzyme?
An angiotensin converting enzyme is an enzyme which catalyzes the creation of angiotensin.
What enzyme is responsible for fat digestion?
the lipase enzyme :)
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a what?
enzyme-substrate complex
An enzyme that cuts double-stranded DNA at specific nucleotide sequences?
Such an enzyme is called a restriction endonuclease
What is it called when and enzyme and substrate come together?
The binding of an enzyme and a substrate forms an enzyme-substrate complex. It lowers the activation energy of a chemical reaction
