PPT-Enzymes Characterization in

Diabetes mellitus Mahmoud Balbaa Department of Biochemistry Faculty of Science Alexandria University Alexandria Egypt The characterization of the enzyme in patients and healthy individuals or an animal model of disease is studied in a whole investigation of biomarkers of the disease . Definition of an enzyme. Enzyme. is . protein . . catalyst. (i.e. . increase the rate of reactions. ). . NOT. changed during the reaction. Reactions. Most reactions take place in a number of steps which need to be carefully controlled if the cell is to function properly. Enzymes are the most important controllers of cellular reactions. Catalysts. Enzymes as Catalysts. Enzymes are used to speed up chemical (metabolic) reactions e.g. respiration or photosynthesis- so why use enzymes in industry?. They are specific. can catalyse reactions between specific chemicals, even in a large mixture . Presented by Fotios Patsalis . Bio . 446/546 FALL 2016. M/F 13.00-15.50h,. Castetter. . Hall 37. Restriction Enzymes: Molecular Scissors. Restriction enzymes (. endonuleases. ) are specific endonucleases which . Enzymes speed up chemical reactions.. Everything that happens in a cell. Growth. Reproduction. Interaction with the environment. Response to stimuli. Is the result of a chemical reaction.. A chemical reaction is a change in the arrangement. E S <=> ES <=> ES* <=> EP <=> E P. Michaelis-Menten Kinetics. E S <=> ES <=> ES* <=> EP <=> E P. Rate of Formation. Substrate. Product. Enzyme. Enzyme-. IMPORTANCE. OF ENZYMES. Enzymes are biological catalysts that:. . I. ncrease. . reaction rates . by lowering the amount of energy needed for the reaction to occur. 100-1000x . faster. !!!. Activation Energy. protein. !. Enzymes are . Biological . catalysts . that . increase. . the rate of metabolic reactions.. Since enzymes speed up chemical reaction rates, what are they called?. Catalyst- . A substance . Part 1. . Chapter 3. Learning outcomes. You should be able to:. explain how enzymes work. describe and explain the factors that affect. enzyme activity. use V. max. and K. m. to compare the affinity of different enzymes for their substrates. Food biochemistry and food processing. 2012. Simpson B.K. (Ed.) 2. nd. . edition,. John Wiley & Sons, . Inc.. Enzymes in food processing. Advantages.. Enzymes are proteins with powerful catalytic . Enzyme & Substrate. An enzyme is a globular protein which acts as a biological catalyst by speeding up the rate of chemical reactions. . Enzymes are . NOT. changed or consumed by the reactions they catalyze and thus can be reused. . Enzymes. Back when we discussed proteins, we learned that one critical function of protein was to speed up chemical reactions.. Enzymes. are the proteins that increase the rate of chemical reactions. To the penny placed on your desk.. Observe the penny but don’t touch it. What happens?. Explain why. 2. Give the penny a . little . push. What happened?. Why did the penny move the second time and not the first time?. that . catalyze. (. i.e.. , . increase or decrease the rates. of) . chemical reactions. .. . In enzymatic reactions, the . molecules. at the beginning of the process are called . substrates. , and they are converted into different molecules, called the .
