Enzyme kinetics and associated reactor design:
Introduction to enzymes, enzyme catalyzed reactions and
simple enzyme kinetics
CP504 – Lecture 3
- learn about enzymes
- learn about enzyme catalyzed reactions
- study the kinetics of simple enzyme catalyzed reactions
Prof. R. Shanthini 23 Sept 2011
What is an Enzyme?
Enzymes are mostly proteins, and hence they consists of amino acids.
Enzymes are present in all living cells, where they help converting nutrients into energy and fresh cell material.
Enzymes breakdown of food materials into simpler compounds.
Examples: - pepsin, trypsin and peptidases break down proteins
into amino acids - lipases split fats into glycerol and fatty acids- amylases break down starch into simple sugars
Prof. R. Shanthini 23 Sept 2011
Enzymes are very efficient (biological) catalysts.
Enzyme catalytic function is very specific and effective.
Enzymes bind temporarily to one or more of the reactants of the reaction they catalyze.
By that means, they lower the amount of activation energy needed and thus speed up the reaction.
Enzymes does not get consumed in the reaction that it catalyses.
What is an Enzyme?
Prof. R. Shanthini 23 Sept 2011
Oxidoreductase: transfer oxygen atoms or electron
Transferase: transfer a group (amine, phosphate, aldehyde,
oxo, sulphur, etc)
Hydrolase: hydrolysis
Lyase: transfer non-hydrolytic group from substrate
Isomerase: isomerazion reactions
Ligase: bonds synthesis, using energy from ATPs
Enzyme classification

Examples of Enzyme Catalysed Reactions
CO2+ H2O H2CO3 Carbonic anhydrase
Carbonic anhydrase is found in red blood cells.
It catalyzes the above reaction enabling red blood cells to transport carbon dioxide from the tissues (high CO2) to the lungs (low CO2).
One molecule of carbonic anhydrase can process millions of molecules of CO2 per second.
Example 1:
Examples of enzyme catalyzed reactions
Prof. R. Shanthini 23 Sept 2011
2H2O2 2H2O + O2 Catalase
Catalase is found abundantly in the liver and in the red blood cells.
One molecule of catalase can breakdown millions of molecules of hydrogen peroxide per second.
Hydrogen peroxide is a by-product of many normal metabolic processes.
It is a powerful oxidizing agent and is potentially damaging to cells which must be quickly converted into less dangerous substances.
Example 2:
Examples of enzyme catalyzed reactions
Prof. R. Shanthini 23 Sept 2011
- in the food industry for removing hydrogen peroxide from milk prior to cheese production
- in food-wrappers to prevent food from oxidizing
- in the textile industry to remove hydrogen peroxide from fabrics to make sure the material is peroxide-free
- to decompose the hydrogen peroxide which is used (in some cases) to disinfect the contact lens
Industrial use of catalase

Examples of Industrial Enzymes
Prof. R. Shanthini 23 Sept 2011
Enzymes are very specific.
Absolute specificity - the enzyme will catalyze only one reaction
Group specificity - the enzyme will act only on molecules that have specific functional groups, such as amino, phosphate or methyl groups
Linkage specificity - the enzyme will act on a particular type of chemical bond regardless of the rest of the molecular structure
Stereochemical specificity - the enzyme will act on a particular steric or optical isomer

Induced Fit Model(postulated in 1958 by Daniel Koshland )
Source: http://www.mun.ca/biology/scarr/Induced-Fit_Model.html
Binding of the first substrate induces a conformational shift that helps binding of the second substrate with far lower energy than otherwise required. When catalysis is complete, the product is released, and the enzyme returns to its uninduced state.
