What is a zymase?
Zymase substrate is the chemical on which the enzyme zymase acts on. Substrate used could depend on the variety of yeast from which the enzyme is extracted. But, the common substrates are glucose, fructose and maltose.
Term describes the alteration of an enzyme's structure?
denaturation
What is the term for an enzyme's shape when change so it can no longer work?
Enzyme,, any word ending in ASE,,,,, No idea or ever heard of word to describe a non working enzyme.
The term ribozyme describes what property of RNA molecules?
A ribozyme is an RNA molecule that is capable of catalyzing a chemical reaction. Prior to the discovery of ribozymes, the only known biological catalysts were proteins called enzymes.

What term refers to protein that speed up chemical reaction in living things?
Enzyme
What does the medical term enzyme mean?
enzyme /en·zyme/ (en´zīm) a protein that catalyzes chemical reactions of other substances without itself being destroyed or altered upon completion of the reactions. Enzymes are divided into six main groups: oxidoreductases, transferases, hydrolases, lyases, isomerases, and ligases
What is the enzyam activity?
The enzyme activity depends on the conditions of the reaction and the enzmye used. The term enzyme activity refers to the rate at which substrate is converted into product and can be measured in many different ways.
What organic molecules act as a catalyst for chemical reaction?
There are too many possibilities to list.The general term for such a molecule is an enzyme.
What is an aminotransferase?
An aminotransferase is an alternative term for transaminase, any of a group of enzymes which catalyzes transamination.
What does enzyme catalsed reaction mean?
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up other chemical reactions but is not consumed or permanently altered in that reaction. Basically the catalyst just makes it easier for the other chemicals to react with each other so that the reaction will proceed faster. Enzymes are biological catalysts(catalysts that are created by living organisms). So an enzyme catalyzed reaction is when chemicals are reacting with each other and an enzyme is used to catalyze(speed up) the reaction.
What term describe reactants when they are associated with enzyme?
substrateSubstrates.substrate
