Protein catalysts. N.B. some RNA can act like enzymes and called ribozymes. 2. Increase velocity of reaction and arenotconsumed. Substrate cet Jae 3. Active sites | a y ss site /: oneness rN 4. Catalytic efficiency: Enzyme 10? to 10* times faster than uncatalyzed reactions. Turnover is the number of substrate molecules converted to product/enzyme molecule/second. Properties of Enzymes 5. Specificity: only one type of reaction. 6. Cofactors: are non-protein cofactors ® Metal ions, e.g. Zn, Fe, Mg, Mn ® Derivatives of vitamins known as coenzymes. ® Prosthetic group is tightly bound coenzyme and does not dissociate from BAZYOIS e.g. carboxylase and biotin. Permanently Associated Properties of Enzymes $3 6. Cofactors: ® Holoenzyme is Enzyme +co-factor. ® Apoenzyme is protein part of holoenzyme (not active). Apoenzyme + cofactor =— > Holoenzyme (inactive) (active) * Coenzymes determine specificity of reaction whereas substrates determine specificity of enzyme. Properties of Enzymes 7. Regulation: activated or inhibited. 8. Location within the cell: (compartmentalization) Many enzymes are localized in specific organelles within the cell. ?How Enzymes work ® The mechanism of enzyme action can be viewed from two different perspectives. ° The first treats catalysis in terms of energy changes. ° The second perspective describe how the active site chemically facilitates catalysis. ovecececeo ,seeeeee ?How Enzymes work The mechanism of enzyme action can be viewed from two different perspectives. There is no difference in the free energy of the overall reaction (energy of reactants minus energy of products) 1. Energy changes occurring between the catalyzed and uncatalyzed during the reaction, free energy of activation is the energy difference between reactants and a high-energy intermediate that occur during the formation of product (Transition state).
