Unit II: Biochemistry

Part V: Enzymes
9
Intro Question Someone says to you “you can eat as much as you want and never gain weight; you must have a high metabolism”. What do you think that statement means biochemically?
10
Chemical Reaction A process that changes one set of chemicals into another This change comes from breaking and/or forming new chemical bonds
11
Enzymes Types of proteins Speed up chemical reactions
Shapes & function have to match for them to be able to work Speed up chemical reactions A million times faster or more
12
Enzymes Enzymes make reactions go faster OR slower
To adjust metabolism Have names ending in “-ase” Ex. Lactase(enzyme) breaks down Lactose (Sugar)
13
Think-Pair-Share What happens in the Catalytic Converter in a car? Why is a Catalytic Converter a good name?
15
How Enzymes Work Each enzyme has a unique shape
Works on a specific chemical Substrate = chemical the enzyme works on Each enzyme has an active site VERY SPECIFIC A slot or pocket that fits substrate perfectly
16
Enzyme
17
Active Site Shape of Active Site Complementary to shape of Substrate
18
Lock and Key Model The grooves and prongs of the key
Must be complementary to grooves and prongs of the lock Like the Active Site and the Substrate Must be complementary
19
Environmental Effect Extreme environments can affect enzyme shape & binding of the Substrate 2 key environmental factors High Temperature pH too acidic or too basic These environments cause the enzyme to denature (break down)
20
Environmental Effect Example: Digestive enzymes break down food
Enzymes build starch out of sugar Organisms need 1000s of enzymes Without enzymes, life would not survive
