Difference between Chemical reaction and Enzyme catalysis

Chemical reaction vs. Enzyme catalysis

A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. Enzyme catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction by the active site of a protein.

Similarities between Chemical reaction and Enzyme catalysis

Chemical reaction and Enzyme catalysis have 22 things in common (in Unionpedia): Acid, Acid dissociation constant, Activation energy, Active site, Adenosine triphosphate, Amine, Amino acid, Base (chemistry), Biochemistry, Catalysis, Cell (biology), Covalent bond, Electrophile, Entropy, Enzyme, Lewis acids and bases, Nucleophile, PH, Protein, Reaction rate, Substrate (chemistry), Transition state.

Acid

An acid is a molecule or ion capable of donating a hydron (proton or hydrogen ion H+), or, alternatively, capable of forming a covalent bond with an electron pair (a Lewis acid).

Acid dissociation constant

An acid dissociation constant, Ka, (also known as acidity constant, or acid-ionization constant) is a quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution.

Activation energy

In chemistry and physics, activation energy is the energy which must be available to a chemical or nuclear system with potential reactants to result in: a chemical reaction, nuclear reaction, or other various other physical phenomena.

Amino acid

Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

Base (chemistry)

In chemistry, bases are substances that, in aqueous solution, release hydroxide (OH−) ions, are slippery to the touch, can taste bitter if an alkali, change the color of indicators (e.g., turn red litmus paper blue), react with acids to form salts, promote certain chemical reactions (base catalysis), accept protons from any proton donor, and/or contain completely or partially displaceable OH− ions.

Biochemistry

Biochemistry, sometimes called biological chemistry, is the study of chemical processes within and relating to living organisms.

Catalysis

Catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction due to the participation of an additional substance called a catalysthttp://goldbook.iupac.org/C00876.html, which is not consumed in the catalyzed reaction and can continue to act repeatedly.

Cell (biology)

The cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room") is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known living organisms.

Covalent bond

A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.

Nucleophile

Nucleophile is a chemical species that donates an electron pair to an electrophile to form a chemical bond in relation to a reaction.

PH

In chemistry, pH is a logarithmic scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.
