Introduction
Enzyme kinetics is the study of the rates at which enzymes catalyze chemical reactions. Enzymes are essential biological molecules that play a crucial role in various metabolic processes in living organisms. They act as catalysts, accelerating the rate of biochemical reactions without being consumed in the process. Understanding enzyme kinetics is critical in elucidating the mechanisms underlying metabolic disorders, which are diseases caused by abnormalities in metabolic processes.
Metabolic disorders are a group of diseases that result from defects in the body’s normal metabolic processes. These disorders can affect various organs and systems in the body and can lead to serious health complications if left untreated. Enzymes play a key role in the regulation of metabolic pathways, and any disruption in enzyme function can result in metabolic disorders.
This project aims to explore the relationship between enzyme kinetics and metabolic disorders. By studying the kinetics of enzymes involved in metabolic pathways, we can gain insights into the underlying mechanisms of metabolic disorders and potentially identify new therapeutic targets for treatment.
