Enzymology is the study of enzymes, which are biological molecules that act as catalysts to accelerate chemical reactions in living organisms. This field of research focuses on the structure, function, regulation, and kinetics of enzymes, as well as their role in key metabolic pathways and biological processes. Enzymologists investigate how enzymes interact with substrates, cofactors, and inhibitors, and seek to understand the mechanisms by which enzymes carry out their catalytic functions. This research is important for developing new drugs, understanding genetic disorders, and improving industrial processes in fields such as biotechnology and biochemistry.
