Summary

This video delves into the fascinating world of enzymes, essential proteins that accelerate chemical reactions in the human body. It explains how enzymes work by lowering activation energy and highlights the role of active sites, cofactors, and coenzymes in enzyme activity. The script covers key factors affecting enzyme function, such as temperature, pH, concentration, and inhibitors. It also compares the lock and key model with the induced fit hypothesis to describe enzyme-substrate interactions. Lastly, it discusses competitive and non-competitive inhibitors and their impact on enzyme activity, providing a comprehensive understanding of how enzymes regulate biochemical reactions.

Takeaways

• 😀 Enzymes are proteins that accelerate chemical reactions by modifying substrates in the human body.
• 😀 The first enzyme was discovered and isolated by French chemist Arselen in 1883.
• 😀 Enzymes work by lowering the activation energy required for chemical reactions.
• 😀 The enzyme's active site binds to specific substrates, forming products after chemical bonds are broken and reformed.
• 😀 Enzymes have a specific shape and chemical properties determined by their amino acid composition.
• 😀 Cofactors are non-protein molecules, including metal ions (activators) and organic molecules (coenzymes), that help activate enzymes.
• 😀 Apoenzymes (inactive enzymes) become active when combined with coenzymes, forming holoenzymes.
• 😀 The lock and key model suggests that the substrate fits precisely into the enzyme's active site, while induced fit theory proposes the enzyme's active site adjusts to fit the substrate.
• 😀 Environmental factors like temperature and pH can affect the enzyme's active site and its function.
• 😀 Competitive inhibitors block the enzyme's active site, preventing the substrate from binding, while non-competitive inhibitors change the enzyme’s shape, affecting its activity.

Q & A

What is the role of enzymes in the human body?

Enzymes are proteins that accelerate chemical reactions in the human body by modifying substances called substrates.

Who discovered enzymes, and when?

Enzymes were first discovered and isolated by a French chemical scientist in 1883.

How do enzymes accelerate chemical reactions?

Enzymes lower the activation energy required for a reaction, enabling the reaction to proceed faster.

What is the 'activation energy' in biochemical reactions?

Activation energy is the amount of energy required to start a chemical reaction.

What is the active site of an enzyme?

The active site of an enzyme is the specific region where the substrate binds and is modified to form a product.

What are cofactors in enzyme activity?

Cofactors are non-protein molecules, such as metal ions or vitamins, that bind to enzymes and help activate their activity.

What is the difference between holoenzymes and apoenzymes?

Holoenzymes are active enzymes formed when an enzyme binds to a coenzyme, while apoenzymes are inactive enzymes that require coenzymes to function.

What is the 'lock and key' model of enzyme function?

In the 'lock and key' model, the enzyme's active site has a specific shape that fits the substrate, like a key fitting into a lock.

How does the 'induced fit' hypothesis differ from the 'lock and key' model?

In the 'induced fit' hypothesis, the enzyme adjusts its active site to better bind with the substrate, whereas in the 'lock and key' model, the enzyme's shape is rigid and perfectly matches the substrate.

What factors affect the activity of enzymes?

Factors such as temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, and enzyme inhibitors can affect enzyme activity.

What are the two types of enzyme inhibitors?

The two types of enzyme inhibitors are competitive inhibitors, which block the enzyme's active site, and non-competitive inhibitors, which alter the enzyme's shape by binding to a different site.
