What conditions are most favourable for enzyme…
What conditions are most favourable for
enzyme function?
deconstruct
types of enzymes
Amylase
that helps you digest food (medline plus, 2020)
Amylase digests carbohydrates (Muscleblaze, 2016)
Lipase
enzyme the body uses to break down fats in food (Mount Sinai, n.d.)
Lipase breaks down fats into fatty acids (Muscleblaze, 2016)
Proteases
enzymes that break down protein (Therapeutic Research Faculty, 2020)
is a digestive enzyme which helps for building muscle and breaking down food (Muscleblaze, 2016)
Proteases split protein into amino acids (Muscleblaze, 2016)
Pectinases
Pectinase is used in the extraction, clarification, filtration (science direct, n.d.)
Pectinases are present in fruits of plants where they play a natural role in the ripening process (Science Direct, 2019)
Pectinase breaks the polysaccharide pectin into small monomers i.e. galacturonic acid that are negatively charged (Jadaun, 2018)
Conditions
ph
acidic/basics
Altogether, the amino acids determine the substrate specificity and restrict the enzyme activity only to a narrow range of pH.(Sutipatanasomboon, 2021)
temperature
Higher temperatures tend to speed up the effect of enzyme activity
while lower temperatures decrease the rate of an enzyme reaction
Temperature influences the stability of their intramolecular bonds.(Sutipatanasomboon, 2021)
concentration
higher enzyme concentration indicates that more enzyme molecules are available to process the substrate (Sutipatanasomboon, 2021)
Lowering the enzyme concentration will further slow the time/rate of reaction.
enzyme inhibitors
Competitive
competitive inhibitor blocks the active site and thus prevents substrate binding
non competetive
The binding of the inhibitor to the allosteric site causes a change to the enzyme’s active site
Favourable
works the best
has the most wanted effect
shows good results
has the best results compared to the rest of the options
the most optimal condition
Enzymes
An enzyme is a biological catalyst and is almost always a protein. It speeds up the rate of a specific chemical reaction in the cell. (Austin, n.d.)
The most common enzyme types used in the Household care industry are proteases, amylases, lipase, cellulases, mannanases, and pectinases.
