ENZYME S Objectives 1 State what two types

ENZYME S Objectives: 1. State what two types of reactions occur in your body and explain the difference between them. 2. Explain the structure and function of enzymes. 3. Explain the two different models for how enzymes work. 4. Explain what it means for an enzymes to become denatured. http: //hillarybio. blogspot. com/2008_09_01_archive. html

Types of Chemical Reactions in Your Body 1. anabolic: (building/creating)synthesis reactions smaller molecules join to form larger molecules eg: making cell parts (growth, repair) glycogen (in animals) (in plants) starch e. g. glucose (monosaccharide) 2. catabolic: digestion reactions (breaking down) larger molecules broken down into smaller ones eg: polysaccharides monosaccharides (polysaccharides)

Enzymes enzymes areproteins biological catalysts (speed up chemical reactions) they are reusable Enzyme Structure each enzyme has a place called the active site substrate is the reactant that an enzyme acts on when it catalyzes a chemical reaction the active site is the location where the substrate binds to an enzymes are very specific for the types of substrates they attach most will only attach to one type of molecule a different enzyme is therefore needed for every reaction in the body the substrate and the active site must have well-matched shapes for binding to occur

Enzymes Induced-Fit Model as the substrate enters the active site, the protein changes shape to better fit the substrate the attachment of the substrate to the active site creates the enzyme-substrate complex Lock & Key Hypothesis each enzyme is uniquely designed to fit with its substrate (reactant in a chemical reaction) at the active site anaboli they fit perfectly like ‘a lock & key’ catabolic reaction

Lock & Key Hypothesis Anabolic Chemical Reaction substrate active site 1. substrates bind with the enzyme’s active site 4. 2. enzymesubstrate complex forms enzyme • product is released • enzyme detaches & is reused 3. • bonds are formed between 2 substrates • endothermic

Lock & Key Hypothesis Catabolic Chemical Reaction 4. substrate binds with enzyme’s active site • products are released • enzyme detaches & is reused 1. 3. 2. • bonds are broken • exothermic • enzyme-substrate complex forms • helps break bond

Lock & Key Hypothesis An Example Products

Denaturation of Proteins + heat denaturation: when proteins lose their specific 3 D shape washing a pure wool (protein) sweater in hot water → shrinks egg white & yolk solidify when heated denatured enzymes lose their functionality substrate no longer fits the enzyme’s active site chemical reaction won’t be catalyzed ex. denaturation can be caused by: 1. very hot temperatures 2. strong acids (low p. H) 3. strong bases (high p. H) Note: Each enzyme has an ideal temperature & p. H at which it works best.

Importance of Enzymes Proteins make up about 15% of the mass of the average person. Protein molecules are essential to us in many different ways. A lot of our body is made from protein molecules. Muscle, cartilage, ligaments, skin and hair are mostly made of protein materials. Larger proteins also hold us together. Smaller protein molecules play a vital role in keeping our body working properly. Haemoglobin, hormones (ex. insulin, antibodies, and enzymes are all examples of smaller proteins. Both vegetarians and meat eaters must have protein in their diet. The protein in the food we eat is our main source of the chemical building blocks we need to build our own protein molecules.
