production of enzymes

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..

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..

The activity of some enzymes, particularly those involved in metabolic pathways, are controlled by a self-regulating mechanism. Some specific substance, most often the product itself, acts as an inhibitor. Such an inhibitor binds to an enzyme at a specific site and mo..

>Some areas of application of biotechnology include: Food industry - production of fermented / malted food. Diary industry - production of microbe assisted dairy products like yogurt, different types of cheese. Beverage industry - production of wine, beer, wh..

Question: What is secretion? Give two examples. Answer: Secretion is the production of useful chemical substances like hormones, enzymes or other molecules by glands, endocrine glands or specialized cells. For example: The liver secretes bile, the islets of langerhans..
