1
New cards
what is breaking down, the substance the enzyme acts upon
Substrate
2
New cards
they only work with particular substrates, they are not interchangeable
Substrate specific
3
New cards
the location where substrates and enzymes attach
Active site
4
New cards
help to speed up reactions, example of an enzyme
catalyst
5
New cards
the amount of energy needed to trigger the formation of new bonds
activation energy
6
New cards
the substrate is able to interact with the enzyme due to its polarity and shape
the substrate is able to interact with the enzyme due to its polarity and shape
Induced fit model
7
New cards
enzyme substrate complex, when the substrate binds at the site

8
New cards
the shape can change
if there is a mutation
9
New cards
change in temperature, or change in ph, they can be repaired as long as their primary structure stays intact, they can slow down the body
change in temperature, or change in ph, they can be repaired as long as their primary structure stays intact, they can slow down the body
how can you change an enzyme
10
New cards
change in the shape (specifically the active site), when the active site changes shape the specific substrate doesn't fit
denaturation
11
New cards
2 active sites, Activator→ binds and induces an ACTIVE form, Inhibitor → binds and induces an INACTIVE form
allosteric enzymes
12
New cards
the end products of a reaction act as inhibitors (aka a negative feedback loop)
feedback inhibition
13
New cards
a molecule mimics the substrate and occupies the active site, the reaction cannot proceed
competitive inhibition
14
New cards
a molecule binds somewhere that is NOT the active site, a change in shape still occurs and the reaction does not happen
noncompetitive inhibitor
15
New cards
an enzyme allows more substrates to bind after the first one has bound, the enzyme must have 2+ subunits for this to occur
Cooperativity
16
New cards
when the substrate binds at the active site
enzyme substrate complex
17
New cards
how acidic something is
pH
18
New cards
1-14
pH scale
19
New cards
high concentration of hydrogen (H+) ions
acids have a
20
New cards
high concentration of hydroxide (OH-) ions
bases have a
21
New cards
the process of forming ions, separating the ions from each other, charging the ions, splitting up the ionic bond
ionization
22
New cards
neutral (7)
water is
23
New cards
acids
acidity =
24
New cards
bases
alkalinity/alkaline =
25
New cards
because when you look at the chemical formula there is a high concentration of H+ ions
why would something be an acid
26
New cards
because the chemical formula there is a high concentration of OH- ions
why would something be a base
27
New cards
