- ENZYMES
- Enzymes are biological catalysts that cannot be used up in a reaction.
- The Enzyme Action-
- Effect of pH
- Too high/low- loses shape
- Optimum Temperature- Stomach- pH2 Mouth-pH7
- Effect of Temperature
- As temperature increases, so does kinetic activity, so enzymes work more efficienly.
- If temperature is too high, enzymes lose their shape and the substrate cannot fit into the active site. It becomes denatured.
- Optimum Temperature- Temperature which enzyme works best
- Humans- 37
- Optimum Temperature- Temperature which enzyme works best
- If temperature is too high, enzymes lose their shape and the substrate cannot fit into the active site. It becomes denatured.
- As temperature increases, so does kinetic activity, so enzymes work more efficienly.
- The substrate fits on the active site of the enzyme.
- The Enzyme Action-
- The Substrate has a specific shape which exactly fits into the Active site of the Enzyme.
- Lock and Key Model
- The Substrate is either broken down/built up.
- This forms a new product
- Effect of pH
- Too high/low- loses shape
- Optimum Temperature- Stomach- pH2 Mouth-pH7
