(33 cards)
This are inorganic activators existing as a part of the enzyme molecule.
Metalloenzyme
It is a substance acted upon by an enzyme and is converted into a new substance.
Substrate
This is a substance derived from a transformed substrate.
Product
This is a substance derived from a transformed substrate.
Product
This is a site where the substrate binds to.
Active site
This is a site where either an inhibitor/ activator binds to in an enzyme.
Allosteric site
This is a site where either an inhibitor/ activator binds to in an enzyme.
Allosteric site
This refers to the distorted active site.
Allosteric inhibition
THis refers to where the active site will fit the substrate
Allosteric Activation
The classification of enzyme is based on what?
Catalytic activity of an enzyme.
What organization categorized enzymes into classes?
International Union of Biochemistry
What is the older names of Oxidoreductases?
Dehydrogenases & Oxidases
What does Oxidoreductases do?
Catalyze oxidation-reducton reactions
This enzyme is assayed for investigation of cardiac and liver disorders.
Oxidoreductases
What are the examples of Oxidoreductases?
Glucose oxidase
Cytochrome oxidase
Lactate dehydrogenase
These enzyme move an intact group of atoms from one molecule to another.
Transferases
What classification of enzymes gives information about liver damage?
Transferases
What are the examples of Transferases?
AST, ALT and CK
This is important for muscles
Creatine kinase
This classification of enzyme splits up molecules with water as a part of the reaction process.

What are the 3 groups of Hydrolases?
A. Esterases
B. Peptidases
C. Glucosidases
If Leucine aminopeptidase is under Peptidases. How about ACP, ALP and Lipase?
Esterases
This hydrolyses peptide bonds.
Pepsin
