| Résumé : |
Living organisms are the site of countless biochemical reactions. These reactions take place under mild conditions thanks to the presence of biocatalysts, called enzymes. These molecules are omnipresent in the life of the cell. They are essential to cellular life; without them, none of the metabolic reactions would be possible. Enzymes are biological catalysts of protein nature. They exhibit remarkable specificity for particular chemical reactions in the metabolism of the organisms that produce them. Like all catalysts, enzymes act at very low concentrations, speeding up reactions without altering the outcome or thermodynamic equilibrium. At the end of the reaction, the enzyme’s structure remains unchanged and can catalyze subsequent cycles. Historically, humankind has used biotransformations empirically for millennia: sugar fermentation to ethanol for alcoholic beverages, ethanol oxidation to vinegar, and milk curdling by lactose fermentation. In these processes, enzyme catalytic activity drives the chemical transformations. The first practical application of an acellular enzyme was probably in cheese- making using rennet extracted from calf stomach to coagulate milk proteins. Today, enzymes have numerous applications: agri-food (human and animal nutrition), industrial (leather, paper, textiles, and detergents), medical and pharmaceutical sectors. Their utility in catalyzing reactions of industrial interest offers several advantages over conventional organic-chemical and microbiological processes: Simplified equipment and operations, possibly in sterile conditions after filtrating enzymatic solutions Catalytic specificity; High reaction rates and the potential for continuous, multi-step processes. The main drawbacks of enzymes are their instability and high cost. Advances in microbial fermentation, affinity chromatography purification, and enzyme immobilization have led to the emergence of enzyme engineering. Enzyme engineering is a branch of bioprocess engineering that involves the exploitation of enzymes through the identification of their specificities, the conditions of their purification, their modification in order to improve their properties and the optimal conditions of enzymatic catalysis and finally large-scale production for applied purposes. The use of enzymes in various industrial fields is of great interest and explains the efforts made in recent years by the scientific community in this direction. However, enzymes remain entities that are part of the living domain and their use requires taking certain precautions, in particular to preserve their catalytic properties. In addition, each enzyme has particularities; there is no universal solution applicable to this entire class of proteins. The course is divided into 4 chapters. The first chapter provides general notions on enzymes (structure, enzyme specificity, enzyme catalysis, classification and nomenclature). The second chapter deals with Michaelian enzyme kinetics with a substrate. The third chapter is devoted to modulators of the enzymatic reaction and the effect of reversible inhibitors on the enzymatic reaction. The last two chapters are devoted to industrial enzymes (sources, extraction, purification and immobilization) and their applications in different fields (agri-food, industrial (leather, paper, textile) and in molecular biology |
