The factors that affect enzyme catalysis (that is, enzyme activity) will definitely affect the rate of enzymatic reactions, but the factors that affect the rate of enzymatic reactions do not ...

This investigation tests how well the enzyme amylase performs at different pH values. Amylase is a carbohydrase enzyme made by the pancreas and by glands in and around the mouth and throat. It helps ...

In an organism, the active site of each enzyme is a different shape. It is a perfect match to the shape of the substrate molecule, or molecules. This is essential to the enzyme being able to work. One ...

Binding between potato tuber invertase and its endogenous inhibitor followed second-order reaction kinetics. Binding rates were diminished by the presence of various inorganic salts, MgCl2 being ...

Enzymes help with specific functions that are vital to the operation and overall health of the body. They help speed up chemical reactions in the human body. They are essential for respiration, ...
