About Enzymes as Biocatalysts
Enzymes are protein or RNA biocatalysts that lower activation energy without being consumed, and their active sites bind specific substrates. The topic covers the lock and key and induced fit models, effects of temperature, pH and substrate concentration, cofactors, enzyme specificity, and competitive versus non-competitive inhibition.
