Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions within cells. They play a crucial role in many cellular processes, such as:
* Metabolism: Breaking down nutrients for energy and building new molecules.
* DNA replication and repair: Copying DNA for cell division and fixing damage.
* Protein synthesis: Creating proteins according to genetic instructions.
If you're studying cell biology, understanding enzymes is essential! Let me know if you need any more information about them.
