The Role of Enzymes (Enhanced DVD)

There is potentially no protein more important to human physiology than enzymes. Enzymes help build our bodies, serve as conduits for all chemical reactions and are produced by our bodies when protein synthesis occurs. Examining the attributes of enzymes and their activities, this eye-opening 28 minute film invites viewers to learn more about topics like genetic engineering of enzymes and how these proteins can change their behaviors to accommodate various functions.

Product Description:

If DNA is the building block of the human body, enzymes may be considered the mortar. Enzymes assist in constructing various aspects of our body, carry all chemical reactions that take place and are created by our bodies by means of protein synthesis. This engaging 28 minute program gives viewers new insights into the characteristics of these fascinating proteins, how they are able to form an enzyme-substrate complex to speed up certain processes while simultaneously decreasing activation energy, and how new breakthroughs in genetic engineering has allowed scientists to isolated specific enzymes like polymerase. Learn about the wide array of roles enzymes play in the human body and what new frontiers scientists are continuing to uncover thanks to this tiny protein.
