A kinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of a substrate using Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) as the donor of the Phosphate Group which then becomes covalently linked to the substrate.

This kind of ion may serve as a cofactor to catalyze a reaction?
A metal ion may serve as a cofactor to catalyze a reaction...just looked it up
Difference between protease and proteinase?
Proteases: Any of various enzymes, including the endopeptidases and exopeptidases, that catalyze the hydrolytic breakdown of proteins into peptides or amino acids. Poteinases: A protease that begins the hydrolytic breakdown of proteins, usually by splitting them into polypeptide chains. It is also a synonym of endopeptidases (e.g. pepsin, trypsin, or papain). Note: Protease - endo- & exo- peptidases; Catalyze hydrolytic breakdown Proteinase - endo-peptidases; Begins hydrolytic breakdown by splitting
What are Protein hydrolyzing enzymes known as?
Proteases or peptidases are the enzymes that catalyze the breakdown (hydrolysis) of proteins into shorter chains of peptides or into their constituent amino acids. Note the process of protein hydrolysis is called proteolysis.
The ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction is not affected by?
excess cofactor
How is a specific enzyme able to catalyze a specific reaction in the cytoplasm of a single cell with many different enzymes?
An enzyme binds to a specific substrate (reactant) for the reaction catalyzed.
What does protease catalyze?
digestion of proteins
What is the main thing an enzyme does to catalyze a reaction?
The main thing that an enzyme does to catalyze a reaction, is to lower the energy of reaction.

What is the formula for protease?
Protease is an enzyme. It is essentially a protein. Protease is not a compound and therefore its formula cannot be given out. Protease are a class of enzymes involved in digesting proteins. The basic mode of action can be described as: Protein + Protease -----> Digested protein + protease Since enzymes do not react in a biochemical reaction (they are merely catalysis), protease appears on both sides of the reaction shown above

What reaction does nuclease catalyze?
Hydrolysis of nucleic acid .
Is an enzyme used up by the reaction it catalyze?
Enzymes are highly efficient catalysts, and only small quantities are needed to catalyze the reaction of relatively large amounts of materials.
How a enzymes catalyze a chemical reaction?
they reduce the activation energy required for the reaction to occur
