Enzyme Flashcards
The meaning of “zyme” in enzyme.
Yeast
RNAs with catalytic activity are called _____
Ribozyme
Is the region of an enzyme where substrate molecules bind and undergo a chemical reaction.
Active site
Is the intermediate reaction species that is formed when a substrate binds to the active site
Enzyme-product complex
Is the reactant in enzyme-catalyzed reaction
Substrates
What suffix is attached to the substrate of the reaction.
“-ase”
Is the enzyme that catalyze an oxidation-reduction reaction.
Oxidoreductase
Is an enzyme that catalyzes a hydrolysis reaction in which the addition of a water molecule to a bond causes the bond to break.
Hydrolase
Is an enzyme that catalyzes the isomerization (rearrangement of atoms or interconversion of optical, geometric, or positional isomers of a substrate in a reaction, converting it into a molecule isomeric with itself.
Isomerase
Is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a functional group other than hydrogen form one molecule to another.
Transferases
Is an enzyme that catalyzes the addition of a group to a double bond or the removal of a group to form a double bond in a manner that does not involve hydrolysis or oxidation.
Lyase
An enzyme that catalyzes the bonding together of two molecules into one with the participation of ATP.
