Chapter 19 Flashcards
Which enzyme does oxidation reduction reactions?
Oxidoreductases
Which enzyme transfers groups of atoms?
Transferases
Which enzyme can perform hydrolysis?
Hydrolases
Which enzyme can add atoms to double bond or remove atoms to form double bond/ ring?
Lyases
Which enzyme interconverts isomers?
Isomerases
Which enzyme uses the energy only of ATP to combine two molecules together?
Ligases
Which enzyme can translocate things across membranes?
Translocases
What affect reaction rates of enzymes?
Substrate concentration
Enzyme concentration
Temperature
pH
Do enzyme catalyzed reactions keep increasing with rising temperatures or is there a cutoff at some point?
Cutoff
A protein or other molecule that is a catalyst that accelerates the rate of bio molecule reactions but at the end of the reaction remain unchanged themselves
Enzyme
Do enzymes lower or raise the activation energy to decrease time for reaction to hit equilibrium?
Lower activation energy
What are some characteristics of enzymes?
Usually globular
Water soluble proteins
Very specific
Non-protein part of an enzyme that is essential to enzymes catalytic activity
Cofactors
What are some examples of cofactors?
Metal ions and coenzymes
What is able to form coordinate covalent bonds and functions as Lewis acids by accepting lone pair electrons present on N or O in enzymes?
Metal ions
What can anchor a substrate into an active site because of it being able to a accept lone pairs?
Metal ions
What is the difference between lock and key vs. induced fit?
Induced fit is a conformational change while lock and key is a ridged shape that cannot be changed
If an enzymes concentration doubles then the rate will ____. Of enzyme concentration triples then the rate will ___
Double
Triple
An increase in temperature usually _____ (increase/decrease) chemical reactions
Increase
Activation or inhibition?
Any process that initiates/ increases the action of an enzyme
Activation
Activation or inhibition?
Any process that slows down or stops the action of an enzyme
Inhibition
_____ inhibition is where the inhibitor can leave, while ______ inhibition is where the inhibitor is permanently bound to the enzyme
Reversible and irreversible
