EXPLAIN: All enzymes are proteins, but all proteins are not enzymes. Eg. Amylase.

Answer» ENZYMES are proteins but all protiens are not enzymes.an explination.A GREAT self-contained example of this is the ribosome, which synthesizes proteins by reading mRNA as a template. The ribosome is a complex of big structured RNA's and a lot of smaller proteins; one of the RNA's contains the catalytic center for peptidyl transferase activity while the proteins essentially HOLD the RNAS in an appropriate conformation to FUNCTION. There are lots of non-catalytic proteins, and plenty of catalytic RNAs.
