This lecture introduces the student about the course objectives and its learning outcomes
Students will learn form this lecture the properties of enzymes, their classification, specificity and substrate binding, lock and key and induced fit model.
This part explains the role of co-factors, what is a transition state and how it is stabilized for catalysis to occur, shape and role of enzyme active sites
Students will learn everything about kinetics including derivation of the kinetic Mechaelis Menton reaction and linweaver burk reciprocal plot
This lecture will help you learn everything about enzyme inhibitors: different types (competitive, uncompetitive, noncompetitive and mixed), their effect on enzyme kinetics, and how to identify the type and differentiate between them.
This lecture explains the mechanisms of reaction that use more than one substrate, their kinetics, the way to differentiate between them and identify their mechanism through kinetic and inhibition studies.
Students will learn in this part the different modes of enzyme regulation: covalent modification, association and dissociation, proteolysis and allosteric regulation
This part reviews few of the mechanistic terms of chemical reactions and explains nucleophilic substitution reactions, cleavage reactions, and oxidation reduction reactions. It also explains the effect of catalysts on transition state stabilization
Students will learn how enzymes mediate their reactions through covalent and acid base catalysis, will understand the effect of pH on enzyme activities, and learn what are diffusion controlled reactions and perfect enzymes.
This lecture will help students understand the effect of enzyme substrate binding and transition state stabilization on accelerating the rate of reaction and catalysis
This section explains catalytic mechanism employed by some enzymes as example: Serine proteases, Lysozyme, and Arginine kinase
Students will learn here how to solve exercises related to enzyme kinetics, draw kinetic curves (Michaelis Menton and Lineweaver plots), identify inhibitor types from kinetic curves, and even solve kinetic exercises mathematically.
