Enzyme Kinetics Flashcards
1
Q
Diffusion
A
Molecules in a solution that move haphazardly under the influence of thermal motion
2
Q
Enzyme structure
A
Globular shape determined by mainly non-covalent intermolecular interactions among amino acids
3
Q
Cofactors
A
Catalyse enzymes into action
4
Q
Half-life
A
Time taken for half of the concentration ratio of a given reactant to reach half of its original value
This reaction is as fast as its diffusion limit
