Document Summary
Enzymes are classified based on the chemical reaction that they catalyse, not based on their structure or sequence. A: enzyme class (only has 6 enzyme class) Use in the food industry to assemble food paste together. They both do not share any sequence or structural homology, yet both the enzyme catalyses the exact same reaction (same ec number). No, their efficiency, their optimal working conditions, how they are activated are different. Reaction: oxidation-reduction reactions transfer h or o atoms, or electrons, from one molecule to another. Systematic name a)oxidised species : b)reduced species c)oxidoreductase. Ec 1. 1. 1. 1: alcohol dehydrogenase oxidises alcohol to ketones or aldehyde. In exam, name the enzyme the direction it is given. Ec 1. 1. 1. 3: alcohol: oxygen oxidoreductase or alcohol oxidase(common name, cannot use in exam) Reaction: transfer of functional groups from one molecule to another. Ec 2. 6. 1. 2. 1: d-alanine: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase (common name: d-alanine transaminase) Loss of 1 phosphate group (atp adp)
