I am doing some monitoring with prometheus and is trying to understand how to properly use the rate functions. Premise is this; I have a counter, configuration for this is set to ingest new values...
Enzymes. Enzymes are proteins, produced by living cells; they catalyze chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy. Activation energy is the energy required for a chemical reaction to occur. Enzymes are generally globular proteins with characteristic three-dimensional shapes.The active site is the binding site for the enzymeâs substrate. Enzymes are specific for substrate molecules.ctivation energy is the energy required for a chemical reaction to occur.

Hydrolysis Reactions in Living Organisms. Hydrolysis reactions in living organisms are performed with the help of catalysis by a class of enzymes known as hydrolases. The biochemical reactions that break down polymers, such as proteins (which are peptide bonds between amino acids), nucleotides, complex sugars and starch, and fats are catalyzed by this class of enzymes. Within this class are lipases, amylases, proteinases hydrolyze fats, sugars, and proteins, respectively.
