Question
Chapter 19.5, Problem 19.12P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The comparison for the reaction rates catalysed by pepsin at
Concept introduction:
Enzyme:
- It is a protein or a molecule which can act as a catalyst for a biological reaction.
- Does not affect the equilibrium point of the reaction.
- Active site of the enzyme is the region where the reaction takes place.
- Enzyme’s activity can be specific which means the activity is limited to a certain substrate and a certain type of reaction and it is referred to as specificity of the enzyme.
- Decreases the time required for the reaction by lowering its activation energy.
Factors affecting enzyme activity:
Substrate concentration
Enzyme concentration
Temperature
