The effects of temperature on enzyme activity. Top: increasing temperature increases the rate of reaction (Q10 coefficient). Middle: the fraction of folded and functional enzyme decreases above its denaturation temperature. Bottom: consequently, an enzyme's optimal rate of reaction is at an intermediate temperature.

All have an optimum pH. The pH can stop enzyme activity by denaturating (altering) the three-dimensional shape of the enzyme by breaking ionic, and hydrogen bonds. Most enzymes function between a pH of 6 and 8; however pepsin in the stomach works best at a pH of 2 and trypsin at a pH of 8.

At this temperature incubation for 30 minutes reduces the enzymes activity by half. Thermolysin has a T 50 value of 86.9 °C, making it the most thermo stable member of the TLP family. [ 9 ] Studies on the contribution of calcium to thermolysin stability have shown that upon thermal inactivation a single calcium ion is released from the ...
The enzyme unit, or international unit for enzyme (symbol U, sometimes also IU) is a unit of enzyme's catalytic activity. [ 1 ] 1 U (μmol/min) is defined as the amount of the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of one micro mole of substrate per minute under the specified conditions of the assay method .
T. aquaticus is a bacterium that lives in hot springs and hydrothermal vents, and Taq polymerase was identified [1] as an enzyme able to withstand the protein-denaturing conditions (high temperature) required during PCR. [2] Therefore, it replaced the DNA polymerase from E. coli originally used in PCR. [3]
