Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up biochemical reactions by lowering the activation energy required for a reaction to occur. These protein molecules are essential for life as they facilitate processes such as digestion metabolism and DNA replication. In this topic we will explore how enzymes catalyze biochemical reactions their mechanism of action and the …

Glycosides are biologically significant compounds composed of a sugar (glycone) and a non-carbohydrate moiety (aglycone). The aglycone is responsible for the biological and pharmacological properties of glycosides influencing their activity in plants medicine and various industries. This topic explores the role structure and functions of the non-carbohydrate moiety in glycosides highlighting its importance in nature …
