Summary Unit 1 - A Cell Structure (enzymes)
In this document, we touch on what an enzyme is, what is its main function, the structure, active site, different models to show how it works, the activation energy graphs to show the effects of a reaction with and without an enzyme. We also provide a detailed explanation of the different factors affecting enzyme activity and ways to measure enzyme affinity. The document also includes a detailed explanation and procedures for the immobilization of an enzyme, along with the advantages of immobilization.
