Enzymes

2. Type of enzyme regulation where a small molecule, like Ca²⁺, binds reversibly to a regulatory site, altering the enzyme's activity
4. The molecule(s) produced as a result of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction
10. An enzyme in the stomach that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides
11. The characteristic of enzymes that ensures they only bind to specific substrates, like a lock and key
12. A small organic molecule, often derived from vitamins, that helps an enzyme catalyze a reaction
13. A biological molecule that accelerates the rate of a biochemical reaction by lowering the activation energy
14. A molecule that participates in a chemical reaction and is transformed into a product
18. The point where an enzyme is working at its maximum capacity because the active site is always occupied with substrate
20. Enzyme that synthesizes ATP in the mitochondria

1. Enzyme that remove a phosphate group from a substrate in covalent modification
3. Enzymes are made of this biological molecule
5. An example of a cofactor that is a trace metal and helps in enzyme catalysis
6. Enzyme that add a phosphate group to a substrate in covalent modification
7. The official ending of most enzyme names
8. Enzyme that breaks down fats
9. A molecule that binds to a specific site on a protein, such as an enzyme or receptor, to trigger a response
15. The region on an enzyme where the substrate binds
16. The strength of the interaction between an enzyme and its substrate, determined by size, shape, and charge
17. A non-protein molecule, often a trace metal, that assists an enzyme in its catalytic activity
18. The molecule that binds to an enzyme's active site and is converted into a product during a chemical reaction
19. An enzyme that breaks down starch into simpler sugars
