| Definitions |
Macromolecules that are selective catalysts, accelerating both the rate and specificity of metabolic reactions. Most known enzymes are proteins, although catalytic RNA molecules have been identified. Enzymes adopt a specific three-dimensional structure, and may employ organic (e.g. biotin) and inorganic (e.g. magnesium ion) cofactors to assist in catalysis. |
