Classification & Factors Affecting of Enzyme Crossword Puzzle

QUESTIONS LIST:

• oxidoreductases:which class catalyzes redox reactions?
• lyases:which class forms double bonds by removing groups without hydrolysis?
• temperature: which factor causes enzyme denaturation at high levels?
• ph:what measure of acidity/alkalinity has an "optimum" for every enzyme?
• substrate:whose concentration leads to a maximum velocity (vmax) when all active sites are saturated?
• isomerases:what enzymes rearrange atoms within a single molecule?
• km:what constant represents the substrate concentration at half-maximum velocity?
• denaturation:what is the term for the permanent loss of an enzyme's 3d structure due to heat or extreme ph?

• pepsin:which enzyme in the human stomach has an optimal activity at a highly acidic ph of around 1.5 to 2.0?
• amylase:which digestive enzyme in human saliva works best at a neutral ph (~6.8) and body temperature (37°c)?
• thermophiles:what kind of organisms have enzymes that remain stable and active at temperatures exceeding 80°c?
• cofactor:what non-protein component, like a metal ion(zn 2+,mg2+) is often required for an enzyme to become active?
• holoenzyme:what is the term for the complete, catalytically active enzyme complex consisting of both the protein part and its required cofactor?
• serial: what does the fourth digit represent (often indicating the specific enzyme in its sub-subclass)?
