The document discusses enzymes and how they catalyze biochemical reactions in living cells. It provides information on what enzymes are made of, how they work, and factors that affect their activity. Enzymes are proteins that function as biological catalysts and have an active site where reactions occur. They speed up reactions by lowering activation energy. The rate of enzyme-catalyzed reactions depends on factors like substrate concentration, temperature, pH, and surface area, with each enzyme having an optimum level. The shape and bonds of an enzyme determine its specific function. Enzymes are important for processes like digestion, respiration, photosynthesis, and more. They are also used in industries like food and detergents. Experiments can investigate how temperature,
Catalysts are something that speeds up the chemical reaction. Almost all biochemical reactions require catalysts.
Enzymes are biocatalysts. Biochemical catalysts speed up the biochemical reactions.
In presence of an enzyme, less energy is required for the reaction to take place.
A catalyst may be defined as a substance that increases the velocity or rate of chemical reactions without itself undergoing any change in the overall process.

"Bacterial metabolism: Fueling life's processes in tiny powerhouses."
Use of bacterial metabolism in biotechnology, biofuels, and other industries
Examples of how bacterial metabolism is harnessed for beneficial purposes
"Metabolism: the sum of chemical reactions in an organism, supporting growth, energy production, and vital functions."
"Bacterial Metabolism and Life: Pervading every aspect of life, shaping ecosystems, and influencing our world."
Bacterial metabolism refers to the collective chemical reactions and processes that occur within bacterial cells, enabling them to maintain life, grow, and reproduce. These metabolic activities involve a complex network of biochemical pathways that facilitate the conversion of nutrients into energy, biomolecules, and essential compounds necessary for bacterial survival.
Metabolic processes in bacteria include catabolic pathways that break down complex molecules (such as sugars) to release energy and anabolic pathways that build complex molecules (such as proteins, nucleic acids) using energy. Bacteria utilize various metabolic strategies based on their energy and carbon sources, including aerobic and anaerobic respiration, fermentation, and photosynthesis in photosynthetic bacteria.
The primary goals of bacterial metabolism are to obtain energy, synthesize necessary cellular components, regulate chemical processes, and adapt to changing environmental conditions. The understanding of bacterial metabolism is crucial for various fields, including medicine, agriculture, biotechnology, and environmental science, as it allows us to develop strategies to combat harmful bacteria, harness their metabolic capabilities for beneficial applications, and study their role in ecological systems.

1. STATEMENT OF INQUIRY
The systems of life are supported by biochemical reactions and
the transformation of energy that occur within cells. Innovation
in science could lead to these reactions being utilized to meet
growing energy and food needs
KEY CONCEPT
Systems
RELATED CONCEPT
Transformation and Energy
GLOBAL CONTEXT
Scientific and Technological
Innovation
What chemical processes support life?
3. What’s the missing link?
What is the link between digestion, photosynthesis, bread, wine
and washing powder?
They all depend on enzymes.
4. The part of an enzyme where the reaction occurs is known as the
active site
Active site:
Enzyme
What are Enzymes?
Enzymes are proteins that function as biological catalysts
Catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical
reaction and is not changed by the reaction
5. The molecule the enzyme acts on is known as the
substrate or reactant
Active site:
The site on the
enzyme where the
reaction occurs
Enzyme
Substrate molecules
Enzymes
6. The molecule the enzyme produces is known as the
product molecule
Active site:
The site on the
enzyme where the
reaction occurs
Enzyme
Product molecules
Enzymes
7. Naming Enzymes
• Most enzymes have an –ase ending
• The root name suggests what molecule it acts upon or
• Example
– carbohydrase breaks down carbohydrate
– proteases break down proteins
– lipases break down lipids
9. What are enzymes made of?
Enzymes are protein molecules, and so are made up of amino
acids. Most enzymes contain between 100 and 1,000 amino
acids.
These amino acids are joined together in a long chain,
which is folded to produce a unique 3D structure.
10. Why is shape important?
The shape of an enzyme is very important because it
has a direct effect on how it catalyzes a reaction.
An enzyme’s shape is
determined by the sequence
of amino acids in its
structure, and the bonds
which form between the
atoms of those molecules.
Why do enzymes have different shapes?
Different types of enzymes have different shapes
and functions because the order and type of amino
acids in their structure is different.
12. LOCK AND KEY MODEL
In the same way that a key fits into a lock, so a
substrate is thought to fit into an enzyme’s active site.
The enzyme is the lock, and the substrate is the key.

15. Enzyme-Substrate Interaction
The active site of the enzyme and substrate molecules have
complementary shapes so they fit together
By bringing the substances close together, the enzyme molecule
makes the reaction take place much more rapidly
The enzyme cause a strain in the bond between the substrates,
making it easier for it to break
17. Factors affecting enzyme action
The rate of enzyme–catalyzed reactions depends on several
factors. What are some of these?
All enzymes work best at only one particular temperature
and pH: this is called the optimum.
Factors that affect the rate of a reaction include:
substrate concentration
temperature
Different enzymes have different optimum temperatures
and pH values.
pH
Surface area
18. Factors affecting enzymes
If the temperature and pH changes sufficiently beyond
an enzyme’s optimum, the shape of the enzyme
irreversibly changes.

When this happens the enzyme is denatured.

24. Enzymes and cells
Enzymes catalyze the thousands of reactions that need to take
place in order to maintain life. What are some of these
reactions?
digestion
respiration
photosynthesis (plants and
some bacteria)
protein synthesis.

26. Enzymes are used in the food industry
• Pectinase break down
substances in apple cell
walls and enable greater
juice extraction.
• Pectinase changes fruit
juices from cloudy to clear
27. Enzymes are used in the food industry
Lactase breaks down
lactose in milk into
glucose and galactose.
This makes milk
drinkable for lactose
intolerant people.
28. Enzymes are used in biological washing powders
• Why are enzymes needed in washing powders?
29. How do enzymes help to clean clothes?
The enzymes are coated with a special wax that melts in the
wash, releasing the enzymes. Once the stains have been
broken down, they are easier for the detergent to remove.
Biological washing powders and liquids contain enzymes that
help remove stains.
Proteases break down proteins in stains such as grass,
blood and sweat.
Lipases break down stains
containing fat and oil.
Carbohydrases break down
carbohydrate-based stains,
such as starch.
32. PRACTICAL WORK WITH ENZYMES
• Effect on temperature on the activity of catalase
• In this experiment, the enzyme to be extracted and tested is
catalase and the substrate is hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).
• Certain reactions in the cell produce hydrogen peroxide, which is
poisonous.
• Catalase makes the hydrogen peroxide harmless by breaking it down
to water and oxygen.
• How much oxygen is produced can be measured and that gives a
measure of the activity of the enzyme
• The rate of production of oxygen is measured at different times
33. Example: Effect on temperature on the activity
of catalase
• Independent variable (manipulated variable)
– Temperature
• Dependent variable
– Rate of oxygen production
• Controlled variables (keep the same)
– Variety of potato
– The number of potato discs
– Concentration of hydrogen peroxide
– pH
