Enumerate the properties of enzymes and ” its classification. |
|
Answer» Properties of Enzymes:
They are :-
(1) Oxide-Reductases: These are enzymes catalysing oxidation and reduction reactions. These oxidation and reduction reactions are generally referred to as redox reactions. (2) Transferases: These enzyme accelerate reactions involving transfer of functional groups from one compound to another compound. (3) Hydrolases: These are enzymes capable of accelerating hydrolytic reactions. Breaking down of large molecules with the addition of water is called hydrolysis. Enzymes involved in hydrolytic reaction are referred to as hydrolases. (4) Lyases: These enzymes catalyse reactions involving breaking of large molecules without addition of water. (5) Isomerases: These enzymes catalyse reactions involving rearrangement of molecule structure of substrate to form an isomer. Hence they catalyse isomerisation reactions they are termed as isomerases. (6) Ligases: These enzymes accelerate synthetic reactions like polymerisation. |
