enzymes production

Holoenzyne (protein part) (Non protein part) (Active enzyme) The prosthetic groups which get attached to the enzyme at the time of reaction are known as coenzymes. Active site of an enzyme binds the substrate and forms Enzyme substrate complex. Active site is..

Enzymes in general exhibit the following properties Enzymes are basically proteins. They are globular proteins with a very huge molecular weight. For example, the molecular weight of pyruvic dehydrogenase is 4,600,000! Enzymes can only accelerate a chemical reaction. h..

The formation of ES complex is fast and reversible, while the formation of the product (step 2) is the slow, rate determining step. The rate of enzyme catalyzed reaction changes from first order to zero order as the concentration of the substrate is increase..

It was suggested by Emil Fischer in 1894. According to this view, the enzyme molecule operates by chemically uniting with the substrate molecule, forming an enzyme-substrate complex. The enzyme molecule provides a uniquely structured template on which the substrate mo..

Genes do not operate to produce enzymes all the time. Each gene is normally more or less repressed (inactive); but, when a particular enzyme is needed, the relevant gene becomes active to bring about the production of that enzyme. A totally active gene ..

Secretion is the production of useful chemical substances like hormones, enzymes or other molecules by the cells of glands like the bile, endocrine glands like the islets of Langerhans or unicellular glands like the epithelial mucosal lining of the large intesti..

Inducer is a chemical (most often a substrate or any other metabolite) which inactivates the repressor of an operon. The inducer binds with the repressor, forming a repressor-inducer complex. This complex prevents the repressor from binding with the operator gene of the operon. This frees the oper..

All the genes do not play the same role, nor are all the genes active all the time. With regard to their role and activity, the genes are of two different types- Those genes are constantly transcribed and expressed in the cells because the products they code for are constantly needed for ..
