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.

Almost all processes in a biological cell need enzymes to occur at significant rates. To add on, enzymes enable multiple reactions all in one ''flask,'' which is important in the cell b/c many reactions can occur at once. To prevent unwanted reactions, enzymes are specific to certain steps in the reaction.
