ENZYMES MICROBIOLOGY

Enzymes An enzyme is usually a protein. Enzymes are catalysts which function to reduce the activation energy of a chemical reaction, so that the reaction occurs much more quickly than it would in the absence of the enzyme. The speed difference is usually several orders of magnitude faster with the addition of the enzyme. For example, a single lunch would take thousands of years for our bodies to metabolize in the absence of enzymes.

Enzymes are generally large protein complexes. Enzymes function to increase the probability of chemical reactions occurring by lowering the energy of activation.

Enzymes Enzymes are reusable; as soon as reaction is finished, the enzyme is released to work again. Enzymes are needed in very small amounts because they can catalyze the same reaction thousands of times.

Enzymes Enzymes have an active site that positions the substrate so the reaction can occur. Enzyme activity is highly specific and functions in only one type of reaction.

ENZYME NAMES Enzyme names typically end in - ase. Enzyme names start with the type of reaction they act upon.

Sometimes Enzymes Require helpers Enzymes may require metal ions in order to work: Cofactors are commonly Mg+2, Fe+2, or Zn+2. Enzymes may require vitamins or cofactors in order to work: Coenzymes often carry electrons. Sometimes Enzymes Require helpers

Enzyme Inhibition via Metabolic Pathway Modulation Feedback inhibition hinders metabolic pathways: It inhibits an enzyme in the pathway so no product is available to feed the next reaction. One of the most common patterns of inhibition.

Enzyme Inhibition via Metabolic Pathway Modulation Types of inhibition include: Noncompetitive inhibition: Changing the shape of an active site so the substrate no longer fits. Competitive inhibition: Blocking an active site with the attachment of a similar- shaped molecule so the substrate cannot bind.

The difference between competitive and noncompetitive inhibitors competitive inhibitors: binds to the same site as a substrate (- competition for binding) noncompetitive inhibitors: bind ALLOSTERIC ALLY (to a different site) from the one the substrate uses. This binding can result in allosteric inhibition by altering the shape of the substrate binding site.

enzymes Enzymes are specific to the reaction it catalyzes. In the lock and key synthesis model, the enzyme interacts with the substrate specifically in a lock and key fashion. The shape of the substrates fit perfectly and specifically into the active site of the enzyme like a key in a lock. In biology, when we see this pattern of shapes fitting together perfectly with each other, we say that the shapes are complimentary. 

Properties of Enzymes Enzymes are reusable. Enzymes are highly specific.  Enzymes have an active site.  Enzymes are usually proteins Enzymes will have names that end in "-ase"

 Temperature  The rate at which an enzyme converts its substrate into product is affected by many factors.  Temperature - The rate chemical reactions increases with increasin g temperature , because the heat is adding kinetic energy to the molecules which makes them move faster. 

pH also affects enzyme activity     pH also affects enzyme activity. Enzymes have a pH level that it functions best at. As the pH level gets further away (in either direction) from this optimal zone, the side chains of the amino acids become ionized which leads to a loss of tertiary structure, followed by denaturation. ​
