Enzymes(blogg 11)

Enzymes are protein molecules that catalyze specific metabolic reactions without itself being permanently altered or destroyed thats what we learned this week! An enzyme has a substrate that fits to the enzymes like a puzzle piece.Some enzymes change shape after binding to a substrate, improving the fit between the enzyme and the substrate.The role of an enzyme is to make the chemical reaction faster ,so that the reaction doesnt take forever to complete.Enzymes can be effected by temperature and pH's.When the shape of an enzyme is altered it is called Denaturation.We also did a lab based  on enzymes in which we established baselines and did titration.
