topic 2.5: Enzymes
Essential Idea:
- Enzymes control the metabolism of the cell.
Enzymes
2.5U1: Enzymes have an active site to which specific substrates bind.
2.5U2: Enzyme catalysis involves molecular motion and the collision of substrates with the active site.
2.5U3: Temperature, pH and substrate concentration affect the rate of activity of enzymes.
2.5U4: Enzymes can be denatured.
2.5U5: Immobilized enzymes are widely used in industry.
2.5A1: Methods of production of lactose-free milk and its advantages.
2.5Skill1: Design of experiments to test the effect of temperature, pH and substrate concentration on the activity of enzymes.
2.5Skill2: Experimental investigation of a factor affecting enzyme activity (Prescribed Practical 3).
2.5NOS. Experimental design-accurate, quantitative measurements in enzyme experiments require replicates to ensure reliability.
