A type of enzyme that use oxygen as an electron acceptor but don’t incorporate it into the substrate :
Oxidase
A type of enzyme that directly incorporates oxygen into the substrate :
Oxygenase
A type of enzyme that transfers inorganic phosphate (Pi) to a substrate :
Phosphorylase
A type of enzyme that transfers phosphate from ATP to substrate & vice versa :
Kinase
A type of enzyme that removes (cleaves) phosphate from a substrate :
Phosphatase
A type of enzyme that catalyze removal of a group from by a mechanism other than hydrolysis :
Lyase
A type of enzyme that catalyze the joining of two substrates using energy :
Ligase
Molecules that can bind non-covalently at sites on the enzyme other than active sites :
Allosteric modifiers / inhibitors
A type of enzyme inhibition in which the end product of a series of metabolic reactions directly inhibits the first enzyme in the series :
Feedback inhibition
A type of enzyme inhibition in which the end product of a series of metabolic reactions inhibits the gene controlling the synthesis of the first enzyme :
Feedback regulation
