An energy-releasing reaction is more likely to start spontaneously. You have to have enough energy to overcome the activation energy barrier (that is to start breaking some bonds). - See more at: http://www.chacha.com/question/what-makes-proteins-the-ideal-types-of-compounds-to-act-as-enzymes#sthash.WWgf8a0I.dpuf

∙ 13y agoTheir unique ability to have -at any (one) time - a relatively small number of subunits 'in place' that may assume, under different conditions, literally a infinite number of three dimensional 'configurations'.
Add Time, another dimension, and we find that these things vibrate in the realm of (10 to the minus 15) femtoseconds.

Which group of organic molecules makes up enzymes?
Proteins. Answer obtained from biology class.
Nitrogen makes up a significant part of which class of biological compounds?
It is part of something
Does DNA control the production of enzymes?
Yes DNA contains the "blueprints" of the cell, everything the cell makes it does with directions from DNA thank you so much!
What monomer makes up enzyme?
amino acids make proteins and an enzyme is a protein so......
Why are high temperatures not suitable for anaerobic fermentation?
Temperatures in excess of 40oC will denature the enzymes (proteins) in the yeast, which makes them inactive.
What makes proteins the ideal of compounds to act as enzymes?

Which group of organic molecules makes up enzymes?
Proteins. Answer obtained from biology class.
What makes many enzymes?
proteins
What are enzymes and what makes them up?
Globular proteins which catalize bio chemical reactions are called proteins.
If all enzymes are proteins but all proteins are not enzymes then what makes enzymes different fr?
Enzymes are proteins, but as you can imagine, different parts of the body need different types of enzymes to work efficiently. Can you imagine the enzymes which break down food in the process of digestion being replaced by the enzymes which assist respiration or photosynthesis? It wouldn't work. Each type of enzyme controls different chemical processes.
Nitrogen makes up a significant part of which class of biological compounds?
It is part of something
What makes the enzymes for the small intestine?
The small intestine receives enzymes from the pancreas. It provides digestive enzymes for the breakdown of all three types of foods; carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
What monomer makes up enzyme?
amino acids make proteins and an enzyme is a protein so......
Does DNA control the production of enzymes?
Yes DNA contains the "blueprints" of the cell, everything the cell makes it does with directions from DNA thank you so much!
Why are high temperatures not suitable for anaerobic fermentation?
Temperatures in excess of 40oC will denature the enzymes (proteins) in the yeast, which makes them inactive.
What substances makes the pancreatic juice alkaline?
Pancreatic juice contains enzymes that digest carbohydrates,fats, nucleic acids,and proteins.
What makes enzymes?
Enzymes are folded proteins. Proteins are made by ribosomes in the cell. To be specific, information in the nucleus (DNA) is transcripted to mRNA which leaves the nucleus to go to a ribosome to help it assemble amino acids (which are the building blocks of protein). The ribosome "reads" the information of the mRNA and make a sequence of amino acids based on that. This chain of amino acids will become folded due to interactions between between each amino acids which will ultimately become a fully functional protein. This protein may become an enzyme. All enzymes are proteins but not all proteins are enzymes.
