Chemical Reactions Processes that change one set of chemicals into a new set. Bonds are always broken to form new bonds. CO2 + H2O H2CO3 Reactants- Elements or compounds that enter a chemical reaction. Products- Elements or compounds produced in a chemical reaction. Energy and Reactions Energ...

A large number of chemical reactions are spontaneous and occur when the reactants are mixed together, as when many acids are added to an alkaline substance (here the 'kinetic barrier' to be overcome is low). Other reactions take place at a significant rate only when the temperature is ...

Enzymes catalyze nearly all of the chemical reactions that occur in biological systems. Enzymes are generally proteins but also include catalytic DNA and catalytic RNA. As effective biological catalysts, enzymes work by lowering a reaction’s activation energy barrier, thereby increasing the rate of th...
Denaturation Occurs when proteins are heated Changes the shape of their molecules to distort and no longer function Cannot work as an enzyme Often occurs with foods that contain protein Important roles of Enzyme Activity Regulating chemical pathways Making materials that cells need Transferring information...
3.6.1 Define enzyme and active site. Enzymes: Globular proteins which act as catalysts of chemical reactions. Active site: Region on the surface of an enzyme to which substrates bind and which catalyses a chemical reaction involving the substrates. 小的那个是substrate,大的是enzyme 3.6.2 Explai...
2 Reactions and Enzymes (1) 2a Introduction Molecule changes by doing chemical reactions. Cells use enzymes to promote chemical reactions on desire. Free energy (G) The total energy in a molecule - stored in bonds + various types of movements ...
In consequence, there has been much interest towards the synthesis of HMOs industrially, for use as probiotics, for which a number of approaches have been used, including direct chemical syntheses, use of recombinant glycosyltransferase (GT) activities34; transglucosidase reactions, in which glycohydro...
