Enzymes work analogously to the opening of a locr ked door, a reaction will only take place if the correct key substrate is placed in the correct lock enzyme. A complex enzyme contains a nonprotein part, called as prosthetic group coenzymes.
Enzyme characterization why we need to characterize an enzyme. Microbes and their enzymes have been applied for preparation of wines, beer, cheeses and other milk products. For example, urease catalyzes hydrolysis of urea to ammonia and co2, arginase catalyzes the hydrolysis of arginine to ornithine and urea, and phosphatase the. Some enzymes work outside the cells, for example the enzymes in the digestive system. Enzymes actually speed up the rate of a chemical reaction to help support life.
