1 Enzymes: “Helper” Protein molecules

2 Chemical reactions of life
Processes of life ______________ molecules ______________ + +

3 Nothing works without enzymes!
How important are enzymes? ____________________________________________________________________ building molecules ___________________ breaking down molecules __________________________________ “catalysts” enzyme + enzyme We can’t live without enzymes! +

4 Examples __________________ + enzyme __________________ + enzyme

5 Enzymes are proteins ________________________________________________________________________ each enzyme needs to be the ___________ for the job enzymes are named for the reaction they help ___________ breaks down ___________ ___________ breakdown ___________ ___________ builds ___________ Oh, I get it! They end in -ase

6 Enzymes aren’t used up ____________________________________
used only temporarily re-used again for the same reaction with other molecules very little enzyme needed to help in many reactions ____________ ____________ ____________ ____________

7 It’s shape that matters!
_______________________ ________________ allows enzyme & substrate to fit ______________ ______________ ______________ ______________

8 1 2 3

9 Enzyme vocabulary _________________ _________________________
helper protein molecule molecule that enzymes work on _________________________ what the enzyme helps produce from the reaction part of enzyme that substrate molecule fits into

10 What affects enzyme action
_______________________________ correct order of amino acids _______________________

11 Order of amino acids _______________________________________

12 Temperature Effect on rates of enzyme activity
_________________________ greatest number of collisions between enzyme & substrate human enzymes = ___________________________________ _________________________________ molecules move slower decrease collisions

13 Temperature What’s happening here?! reaction rate temperature

14 pH Effect on rates of enzyme activity
____________________________________ depends on where in body pepsin (stomach) = pH 3 trypsin (small intestines) = pH 8

15 pH stomach pepsin intestines trypsin reaction rate pH 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
What’s happening here?! reaction rate 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 pH

16 For enzymes… What matters?
__________!
