Abstract

Enzyme catalysis plays a crucial role in all biological processes, providing highly specific and efficient pathways for biochemical transformations. This research focuses on the mechanisms of enzymatic catalysis, classification of enzymes, factors affecting enzyme activity, and their industrial and medical applications. The study integrates recent findings from molecular biology and biotechnology to highlight modern advancements in enzyme engineering and catalysis optimization.
