Essay content:

Our findings illustrate that the rate of enzyme activity is only influenced by substrate concentration at low level of substrate concentration, and as substrate concentration increases, the rate becomes independent of the substrate concentration and proceeds at a constant state. Introduction The fact that enzymes function as biological catalysts has a significant value in millions of living organisms including human beings...

As catalysts, enzymes, which are mostly proteins, speed up various reactions by lowering the activation energy they required. The mechanism behind enzyme catalysis involves the binding of substrate to the active site of the enzyme, which proceeds to form an enzyme-substrate complex by process called ?§induced fit?? and destabilizes the chemical bonds of the substrate, therefore reduces the energy needed for the reactants to reach the transition state (intermediate)...
