Is temperature a factor that affects enzymes?

New cards
2

35-40

the temperature that human enzymes are at (#-#)

New cards
3

Increase

The disruption between enzyme and substrates and bonds such as H-bonds and ionic bonds are due to the _______________ of temperature.

New cards
4

decrease

Molecules will move slower and cause less collisions between enzymes and substrates due to a ______________ in temperature.

New cards
5

Increases

As the concentration of enzymes increases, the reaction rate _________________

New cards
6

Substrates

As the concentration of enzymes increases, there may be a level off. This is because of ______________

Not all enzymes molecules will find ______________

New cards
7

Increase

As the substrate concentration increases, the reaction rate will ________________

New cards
8

Enzymes

The reaction rate will level off due to all ____________ having active sites engaged

New cards
9

Saturated

If enzymes have all active sites full, they are also called?

New cards
10

Salinity

Changes in __________ will add or remove cations and anions and overall disrupt any bonds.

New cards
11

pH

Changes in ____________ will add or remove H+ and disrupt any bonds.

New cards
12

6-8

What is the most optimal pH for humans (#-#)

New cards
13

Cofactors

Non-protein, small inorganic compounds and ions that help enzymes are called?

New cards
14

inside

Cofactors are bound __________ enzymes

New cards
15

Coenzymes

Non-protein, organic molecules that help enzymes are called?

New cards
16

Coenzymes

what kind of compound helps enzymes by binding temporarily or permanently near active site?

New cards
17

Coenzymes

Vitamins are an example of?

New cards
18

Inhibitors

Molecules that reduce enzyme activity are called?

New cards
19

4

How many types of inhibition are there? (that we have learned)

New cards
20

Competitive

Type of inhibition:

Inhibitor and substrate compete for active site

New cards
21

Increase

To overcome competitive inhibition, would there need to be an increase or decrease in substrates concentration?

New cards
22

Non-competitive

Type of inhibition:

Inhibitor binds to site other than active site

New cards
23

Allosteric

type of inhibitor that will not bind to active site, but will bind to a _______________ site that causes the enzyme to change shape, resulting in the active site not working

New cards
24

Irreversible

Type of inhibition:

Inhibitor permanently binds to enzyme

New cards
25

metabolic pathways

chemical reactions of life that are organized in pathways are also called?

New cards
26

Feedback

Type of inhibition:

Regulation and coordination of production where the product is used by the next step in pathway

New cards
27

Feedback

What type of inhibition has the final product as an allosteric inhibitor of the earlier step

New cards
