65
Enzymes The human body has over 1,000 types of enzymes. Each kind does one specific job. Without enzymes, a person could not breathe, see, move, or digest food. IN SIMPLE LANGUAGE, ENZYMES KEEP US ALIVE! They regulate the digestion of our food, the production of energy, the production of hormones and other important body secretions, and the destruction of foreign substances. 65
66
Examples of Enzymes In the Human Body: Amylases - Amylases break down starch chains into smaller sugar molecules. Your saliva contains amylase and so does your small intestine. Lactase – break simple sugars down into individual glucose molecules. (lactose intolerant people don’t have this enzyme) Lipases - Lipases break down fats. Cellulases - Cellulases break cellulose molecules (from plants) down into simpler sugars. Most animals don’t have these so we depend on bacteria in our gut (approximately 3 lbs) to help us do this. 66
67
Examples of Enzymes Other enzymes: Proteases and peptidases - Proteases and peptidases are often found in laundry detergents -- they help remove things like blood stains from cloth by breaking down the proteins. 67
68
Regulation of Enzyme Activity Temperature, pH, and regulatory molecules can affect the activity of enzymes. Enzymes produced by human cells work best at 98.6 o F with a pH around 7.2. Pepsin in the stomach works best under acidic conditions. Most are regulated by molecules that switch them “on” or “off” as needed. 68
