Different Types Of Enzymes: Organic Macromolecules

Enzymes are biological molecules, or proteins, that act as catalysts. Enzymes help complex reactions so that they may occur everywhere in life. For example, when you eat meat, the proteases work to help break down the peptide bonds that occur among the amino acids. Enzymes usually work to complete one specific job which makes them specific catalysts. They also won’t be found all over the body, enzymes are found in neural cells, intestinal cells, and saliva. Enzymes are among the many organic macromolecules, they specifically belong to the proteins. Proteins are made of amino acids which link together to be folded into a three-dimensional figure. Enzymes are a different type of proteins because they make chemical reactions happen faster without …show more content…
When they are at higher temperatures enzymes denature, which means to stop working. Enzymes have a part called the active site, which is when certain molecules bind to the enzyme and a reaction happens. Homeostasis is maintained by the vital organs, enzymes, waste management functions, and food and water. It’s then converted into energy and used to fuel other parts of the body. Some situations will contain multiple substrate molecules that the enzyme will change. The enzyme grabs on to the substrate in the active site, this is called the substrate complex. Catalysis happens when the substrate is changed, it will break or build chemical bond and you will be left with a products complex. The enzyme releases the product and they go back to the original …show more content…
Because of this Patrick either loses the ability of that enzyme to catalyze its substrate or the loss of ability to regulate that one enzyme to cause his disorder. Patrick was unable to move therefore that goes back to synthesizing the muscle movement. If the muscles can’t properly work with one another then you have a shortage of muscles. The movement that takes place requires energy that comes from the cells storing energy in many ways. Patrick’s body is unable to store energy which is why he isn’t able to move or function properly causing him to become paralyzed. Therefore, Patrick cannot store protein that helps him to move which show that the catalysis is malfunctioning because the proteins aren’t being broken down to be stored. Patrick has already had blood done to show that the proteins aren’t being broken down or stored which is the cause of him being
