BIOCATALYSIS
Enzyme
:star: Inhibitor
Definition
- A substance that interacts with the enzyme to prevent it from working in the normal manner, hence stopping or slowing a specific enzymatic reaction
-
:star: Definition
- A macromolecule made up of protein that acts as a biological catalyst that speed up the rate of chemical reaction by lowering activation energy.
:star: Properties
-
- Act as biological catalyst to increase the rate of biological reaction
