Describe the important properties of enzymes?

The biocatalyst that increases the rate of reaction is defined as enzymes by decreasing activation energy.

The important properties of enzymes are:

The chemical nature of enzymes is a protein in their tertiary nature.

Some RNA can also act as enzymes called ribozymes.

They are amphoteric in nature.

As per the activity, enzymes are substrate-specific.

Also, they remain unchanged during a reaction.

Enzymes increase the rate of reaction by decreasing the activation energy, the energy required to form the transition complex.

Enzymes show its optimum activity at optimum PH(6-8).

Enzyme activity decreases with increase in temperature and all enzyme show maximum activity at 30-40 degree celsius.

Final Answer:  The enzymes are proteinous in nature, amphoteric in nature, substrate-specific, remain unchanged during a reaction, have optimum PH and temperature , increase the rate of reaction by decreasing the activation energy.
