One of the characteristics of enzyme is its high catalytic efficiency. Taking organophosphorus degrading enzyme as an example, adding organophosphorus degrading enzyme to some toxic substances can increase its degradation speed by 1000 to 2450 times. This is because the enzyme-catalyzed reaction can significantly reduce the activation energy required for the reaction. The so-called activation energy is the energy needed to activate the reactive molecules, and only the activated molecules can react.
Organophosphorus degrading enzyme belongs to hydrolase and is a protease.
Organophosphorus degrading enzymes have the following characteristics: pale yellow granular objects.
