Total course content for BIOC2101 UNSW ENZYMES: • The primary role of enzymes is to enhance rates of reactions, so that they are compatible with the needs of an organism. • To understand how enzymes function, we need a kinetic description of their activity. ENZYME KINETICS: • Enzyme kinetics is the rate at which an enzyme works. How much substrate the enzyme can convert to product in a given time. • We study kinetics to understand enzyme catalytic power. Importantly when and why it works best and the factors that affect activity, inhibitors. • Kinetics are important for biology, are of economic importance for industry and are central to pharmaceutical design. • Many drugs inhibit enzymes. Drugs act on proteins but also sometimes on nucleic acids.
