a substance produced by a living organism which acts as a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction.
Enzymes are biological catalysts - substances that increase the rate of chemical reactions without being used up. Enzymes are proteins folded into complex shapes that allow smaller molecules to fit into them. The place where these substrate molecules fit is called the active site.
The animation shows how this works. In this example, two small molecules join together to make a larger one.
If the shape of the enzyme changes, its active site may no longer work. We say the enzyme has been 'denatured'.
Enzymes can be denatured by high temperatures or extremes of pH. Note that it is wrong to say the enzyme has been killed. Although enzymes are made by living things, they are proteins and not alive.
