Active site2

• A substrate entering the active site of the enzyme. (khanacademy.org)
• The active site of an enzyme can be modified as the substrate interacts with the enzyme, creating an "induced fit" between enzyme and substrate. (newworldencyclopedia.org)

Structures2

• 2 are remarkable in the spectacular agreement between their computationally predicted enzyme models and the experimentally determined structures ( Fig. 1 ). (nature.com)
• Unlike keys, enzymes are rather flexible structures. (newworldencyclopedia.org)

Nutrients2

• RONOZYME® MultiGrain is a multi-enzymes product which activities reduce intestinal viscosity while releasing entrapped energy and nutrients, reducing feed costs. (dsm.com)
• Reduced enzyme production can make it harder to digest food and assimilate nutrients. (metagenics.com)

Analogous1

• This model of exact fit, introduced in the 1890s, is often referred to as the "lock and key" model, because the enzyme binding to a substrate is analogous to the specific fit of a lock into a key. (newworldencyclopedia.org)

Chemical8

• Enzyme adsorption onto carriers functions based on chemical and physical phenomena such as van der Waals forces, ionic interactions, and hydrogen bonding. (wikipedia.org)

• Without proteolytic enzymes the chemical reactions that support your life would be too slow. (life-enthusiast.com)
• Enzymes are biomolecules that catalyze chemical reactions in living organisms. (selfgrowth.com)

Bound1

• ELISAs that use direct detection methods require an immobilized antigen that is bound directly to the surface of an assay plate or indirectly by a capture antibody, followed by an antigen-specific primary antibody conjugated to an enzyme, and the detection substrate. (sigmaaldrich.com)

Functional1

• For an enzyme to be functional, it must fold into a precise three-dimensional shape. (newworldencyclopedia.org)

Work5

• Enzymes can only work in certain conditions. (medicalnewstoday.com)
• Most enzymes in the human body work best at around 98.6-degrees Fahrenheit (F) (37°C), which is the body's typical temperature. (medicalnewstoday.com)
• Enzymes work best within specific temperature and pH ranges, and sub-optimal conditions can cause an enzyme to lose its ability to bind to a substrate. (khanacademy.org)
• If you imagine the microbial cell as a small factory, then the enzymes are the robots doing all the work. (dummies.com)
• Systemic means body-wide, and that is where these enzymes work. (life-enthusiast.com)
