What is Enzyme Catalysis and Kinetics Explained about?
1. Enzymes are biological catalysts that are usually proteins and can increase the rate of a reaction by factors of up to 1020 over an uncatalyzed reaction. They do this by lowering the activation energy of a reaction. 2. Enzymes bind specifically to substrates in an active site through noncovalent interactions. This forms an enzyme-substrate complex that then breaks down, releasing products. 3. The Michaelis-Menten model describes enzyme kinetics and defines terms like the Michaelis constant KM, which r
