• Focusing on life science research areas, Creative
  Enzymes has been committed to provide
  professional information for our customers and
  researchers. In this section you will find
  technical resources - Enzyme Introduction, Enzyme
  Families and Enzyme Assays - to help you
  understand our professional experience and
  qualification for developing products and
  tailoring services. Our biochemical materials or
  products, including native and recombinant
  enzymes, zymogens, coenzymes, enzymes inhibitors,
  substrates and others, are mainly for research
  and diagnostic use.

Enzyme Introduction

• 5,000 years ago, people stored milk in animal
  stomachs, in which milk can be turned into
  cheese. Enzymes have been used in the diagnosis
  of disease since the 1940's, derived from the
  intensive research in biochemistry. What are
  enzymes? How they work in biological reactions
  and living organisms? What are the applications
  of enzymes in biotechnology and medical research?
  Here, you can find what we have summarized.

Enzyme Families

• Enzymes are known to catalyze more than 5,000
  biochemical reaction types. Most enzymes are
  proteins, although a few are catalytic RNA
  molecules.
• Enzymes are principally classified and named
  according to the reaction they catalyse. The
  chemical reaction catalysed is the specific
  property that distinguishes one enzyme from
  another, and it is logical to use it as the basis
  for the classification and naming of enzymes. The
  Nomenclature Committee of the International Union
  of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (NC-IUBMB)
  classifies enzymes into families, using a four
  number code, on the basis of the reactions they
  catalyse.

Enzyme Assays

• Enzyme assays are laboratory methods for
  measuring enzymatic activity, developing analysis
  technologies and studying enzyme catalytic
  mechanisms. They are vital for the study of
  enzyme kinetics and enzyme inhibition.
• The enzyme activity is generally determined as
  substrate converted respectively product formed
  per time unit. Procedures for enzyme assays are
  documented or cited in various standard books and
  databases. However, the enzyme activity depends
  on manifold factors and general understanding of
  the particular features of enzymes is required,
  which cannot be described in all details in
  protocols for special enzyme assays. The common
  methods to be applied in enzyme assays are the
  subject of this section.
