PPT-. Nuclease Enzymes Exonucleases

An enzymes that breaks down nucleic acid molecule by breaking the phosphodiester bonds at end 3 or 5 Endonucleases An Enzyme that hydrolyzes internal phosphodiester bonds in a polynucleotide chain or nucleic acid molecules. 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. 1. What are enzymes?. Each enzyme has only one specific reaction it can perform. . 2. How many different reactions can a single enzyme perform?. Yes, the same enzyme molecule can be used over and over. 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. 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. . recommended reaction buffer.
