Annotation -
Enzymology is a branch of biochemistry that deals with the properties, activity, and significance of enzymes. Enzymology studies kinetics of enzymes, structure, and function, as well as their relation to each other.

Requirements to the exam - Czech

Pro úspěšné složení zkoušky jsou třeba základní znalosti o enzymech, jejich struktuře, mechanismech katalýzy, regulaci enzymové aktivity, o enzymové kinetice (stanovení kinetických parametrů Km a Vmax, grafické hodnocení kinetiky), jak může být enzymová reakce ovlivněna (vliv koncentrace substrátu, pH, teploty, aktivátory, inhibitory, typy inhibice), jak se stanovuje aktivita enzymu (podmínky, analytické metody, přímé a nepřímé stanovení aktivity), také o praktickém využití enzymů, izolaci enzymů, přípravě a studiu rekombinantních enzymů.

To successfully pass the exam, you need basic knowledge about enzymes, their structure, mechanisms of catalysis, regulation of enzyme activity, enzyme kinetics (determination of kinetic parameters Km and Vmax, graphical evaluation of kinetics), how the enzyme reaction can be affected (influence of substrate concentration, pH, temperature, activators, inhibitors, types of inhibition), how enzyme activity is determined (conditions, analytical methods, direct and indirect determination of activity), also about the practical use of enzymes, enzyme isolation, preparation and study of recombinant enzymes.
