LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- What is an enzyme? What is it made of? What does it do? How does an enzyme work?
- Is an enzyme used up in a chemical reaction?
- Can a specific enzyme facilitate any chemical reactions or only a specific type? If specific, what is the enzyme specific to?
- What is the enzyme-substrate complex?
- What is the difference and similarity between a substrate and a reactant?
- What factors can affect enzyme activity?
- What is the term for when an enzyme’s shape is changed so that it can no longer work?
- What is a cofactor?
- What are the two types of enzyme inhibitors that we discussed and how do they affect the enzyme?
- We discussed 2 enzyme examples in class: catecholase and bromelain. What reactions do each of these enzymes catalyze?
LECTURE POWERPOINTS
All Versions of Enzyme PPT:
- Student's Enzymes PowerPoint Show
- Student's Enzymes PowerPoint PDF Printout
Printing: The best way for students to print out the PowerPoint Show is to download the PDF version. Select Print, and, when the Print screen comes up, go to the Print Handling options. Under Page Scaling, select "Multiple pages per sheet", Under Pages per sheet, select "2". That uses up less paper, placing two slides on each page.
The Enzymes Lecture materials include:
- learning objectives
- PowerPoint lecture
- practice test & review questions
- additional biology materials that support the lecture material
