Introduction to Enzymes
Review Macromolecules
• Proteins  amino acids
• Carbohydrates sugars
– (monosaccharides, polysaccharides, glucose)
• Lipids  fatty acids and a glycerol
• Nucleotides  nucleic acids
Proteins
• Chains of amino acids
AA
• Many proteins are
enzymes
• Enzymes catalyze
chemical reactions

Enzymes as catalysts
• Catalyst - Speeds up
chemical reactions in
living organisms by
decreasing the energy
needed to start the
Energy
reaction (activation
energy)
Without a catalyst
With a catalyst
Time
Definitions
•Substrate- monomers that
bind to the active site of an
enzyme
•Active site- area on enzyme
where substrate binds
•Product- what the enzyme
produces
Lock and Key Model
Two substrates
Enzyme
Active site of the
enzyme
Lock and Key Model
The substrates fit like a key in a
lock
Enzyme
The active site is
like a lock
Lock and Key Model
The activation energy for these
substrates to bind together has
been lowered by the enzyme.
Chemical reaction!!!

Basic Enzyme Diagram
The substrates
have reacted
and changed
into the product
Enzyme is
unchanged
Active site
In Biology when a word ends in –ase it is more
than likely it’s an enzyme.
Guess what polymers are broken down by these
enzymes and what monomers are created?
Polymer
Monomer
•Protease ________ ___________
•Sucrase ________ ___________
•Lipase ________ ___________
Enzymes are very complex
structures whose shapes and
functions can be affected by many
factors
What factors affect enzyme
function?
