Enzymes are the macromolecules of the proteins having the smallest unit as amino acids.

  • The smallest unit is amino acids and their polymers form protein.
  • When this protein gets functionalized through the structural orientation either by forming tertiary or quarternary structure, they lead to the formation of macromolecules named enzymes.
  • Enzymes just push the reaction rate acting as a catalyst.
  • Its structure is very important as the protein-protein interaction between substrate and that enzyme determines its action.
  • The activation energy of a reaction is decreased when enzymes are applied.
  • Amino acids form small peptide chains and when this number rises above 30, it becomes a polypeptide.
  • Polypeptides are the main constituent of proteins.
  • And thus the answer protein is correct and appropriate.
