The general part of the course presents enzyme nomenclature, their covalent structure and structures of cofactors, enzyme kinetics, enzyme assays, regulation of enzymes in the cell, medicinal enzymology, enzyme engineering and mechanisms of enzymatic reactions. The second part will present applied enzymology, namely industrial production of enzymes, application of enzymes in food and non-food industry, enzyme-associated changes in food and raw materials and the role of enzymes in analytical chemistry, clinical diagnostics molecular biology research and organic synthesis.

Only students with a credit can register for an exam. Credit will be obtained based on a written solution of an individual enzyme kinetics assignment in given deadline. The exam comprises a written and oral part. Students must reach at least 50 % from the test and at least 15 % from the general part (maximum 50 %) and at least 15 % from the applied part (maximum 50 %). Last update: Kubová Petra (30.01.2018)
