Well this is a complicated question, one easy answer would be the salivary amylase, acetyl co enzyme A, B, C, D etc.
1) Each enzyme is specific : here are five out of 5,000 answers -
- pyruvate decarboxylase
- isocitrate lyase
- acetyl-CoA transferase
- phosphorylase kinase
- tryptophan 2-3-dioxygenase
2) note that all enzyme suffixes are -ase.
3) phosphorylase kinase has two -ases - a nested loop - is an ON switch -
phosphorylase phosphatase - also a nested loop - is an OFF switch.

Why must a molecule have a specific shape if it is to be a substrate of an enzyme?
Active sites of enzymes (where the substrates fit in) are substrate specific, and are complementary to the shape of the molecule (substrate). In this way, enzymes can only act on a specific substrate, since that is the only shape that it will accommodate in the active site.
Proteins that help regulate chemical reactions in cells?
No, they are not.
How are enzyems and chewing different?
enzymes and chewing are part of your mouth
Why does sucrase not hydrolyse lactose?
"because the reaction is to slow to make an effect, if a enzyme is added then it can hydrolyse lactose but it can take more than 6 years without the addition of an enzyme" Is bull**** the real answer is because the active site of the two substances are different and so the sucrase becasue Lactose has a different shape/structure which does not fit/bind to active site of enzyme/sucrase.
If brass has a specific gravity of 8.5. A 5-gallon bucket of water weighs 40 pounds. How much would a 5-gallon bucket of brass weigh?
To find the weight of a 5-gallon bucket of brass, first convert 5 gallons of water to its weight. Since water has a specific gravity of 1, 5 gallons of water weighs 40 pounds. Brass, with a specific gravity of 8.5, is 8.5 times denser than water. Therefore, a 5-gallon bucket of brass would weigh 40 pounds × 8.5 = 340 pounds.
Enzymes have specific what that determine their function?
Enzymes have specific active sites that determine their function. These active sites are where substrates bind and reactions take place, allowing enzymes to catalyze specific chemical reactions. The specificity of enzymes is key to their ability to interact with specific substrates and carry out specific functions in the body.
What two ways does ribulose 5 phosphate inefficient compared to other enzymes?
it is slow and not a very specific enzyme
How do mitochondria break down nutrients?
Enzymes are used for it. There are specific enzymes
Is it true or false that Enzymes interact with specific substrates?
True. Enzymes are highly specific in their interactions with substrates. Each enzyme is designed to interact with a particular substrate based on the shape and chemical properties of both the enzyme and the substrate. This specificity allows enzymes to catalyze specific reactions efficiently.
What statements is true about enzymes?
One thing that is true about enzymes is that enzymes speed up metabolic processes and are highly specific.
Do restriction enzymes cut protein molecules at specific sites?
No, restriction enzymes cut DNA molecules at specific sites. They recognize specific sequences of nucleotides in DNA and cleave the phosphate backbone at those points. Proteins are not typically cut by restriction enzymes.
What are enzymes cutting DNA at specific sites to form restriction fragments called?
Enzymes that cut DNA at specific sites to form restriction fragments are called restriction endonucleases or restriction enzymes. These enzymes recognize specific DNA sequences and cleave the DNA at or near these sequences, generating DNA fragments with defined ends.
How many enzymes have been identified in humans and are all enzymes specific?
Many thousands of individually functioning Enzymatic Units. Yes, each enzyme has it's own unique chemical reaction to catalyze.
Enzymes have specific that determine their function?
Enzymes have specific active sites that match the shape and charge of their substrate molecules. This specificity allows enzymes to catalyze specific chemical reactions. Substrate binding induces a conformational change in the enzyme to more effectively convert substrate molecules into products.
How does substrate concentration and pH affect enzymes?
Substrate concentration will affect enzymes because substrates are specific to enzymes. The pH will affect enzymes because certain enzymes will work better in certain pH levels.
What is the structure of enzymes in living cells?
Enzymes are typically structured as proteins with a specific three-dimensional shape that enables them to bind to and interact with specific molecules called substrates. This structure is crucial for the enzyme's function, as it determines the enzyme's catalytic activity and specificity. Additionally, enzymes may have co-factors or co-enzymes that are necessary for their activity.
Enzymes are classified as what?
In terms of biological molecules, enzymes are proteins. There is another method of classifying enzymes. This classification is based on function. There are 6 catagories: 1. Oxidoreductases 2. Transferases 3. Hexokinases4. Liases 5. Isomerases 6. Ligases
