Some enzymes are named after the reaction, where they are used. What name is given to the class of enzymes which catalyse the oxidation of one substrate with simultaneous reduction of another substrate?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To answer the question about the class of enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of one substrate while simultaneously reducing another substrate, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Enzymes**: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms. They are often named based on the reactions they catalyze. 2. **Identifying the Reaction Type**: The question specifies that we are looking for enzymes that facilitate oxidation and reduction reactions. Oxidation involves the loss of electrons, while reduction involves the gain of electrons. ...
