I became quieter, more organized and I finally stopped losing my keys. 1  I started taking ADD medication relatively late in life, at least for a millennial. I was 20, an honors student at a good university and I'd made it through my relatively successful academic career without being medicated.
(Science: Biochemistry). A catalyst or a chemical produced by cells to generally speed up specific chemical reaction without changing the chemical reaction at the end of the reaction.upplement. Enzyme is usually a protein molecule with a characteristic sequence of amino acids that fold to produce a specific three-dimensional structure, which gives the molecule unique properties. Other molecule with catalytic activity is ribozyme, an enzyme made of RNA rather than protein.
Enzymes are soluble protein molecules that can speed up chemical reactions in cells. Like all proteins they consist of a string of different amino acid sub units. The amino acids must occur in the correct sequence for the enzyme to work. This sequence is controlled by the genetic code for the protein.
