Letter to Editor

Advances in Enzyme Research (AER) is pleased to bring you multiple new topical collections on enzyme sciences. AER, a broad-based journal, was founded on tenets to publish the most exciting researches with enzyme science advances and to encourage research, leadership and application of enzymology in disease and provide a rapid turnaround time possible for reviewing and publishing and to disseminate the articles freely for research, teaching and reference purposes. As new Scientific Research Open Access model, AER publishes online peer-reviewed articles covering a wide range of the advancement of science and technology in academic disciplines. The behaviors of these enzymes as biological chemical in health and in disease, during and after medical and/or surgical interventions make AER journal a center of academic discipline in science. Enzymes are “biological catalysts” produced or derived from living organism. When an enzyme is formed, it is made by stringing together hundreds of amino acids in a very specific and unique order of chains and folds into a unique shape that allows the enzyme to carry out specific chemical reactions. An enzyme acts/speeds efficiently as a catalyst for a specific chemical reaction. The purpose of an enzyme in a cell is to allow the cell to carry out chemical reactions. These reactions allow the cell to build things or take things accordingly as needed. This is how a cell grows and reproduces. At the most basic level, a cell is really a little bag full of chemical reactions that are made possible by enzymes. At any given moment, all of the work being done inside any cell is being done by enzymes. If you understand enzymes, then you understand cells. A cell has about 1000 different types of enzymes floating around in the cytoplasm at any given time waiting for the chemical they recognize to float by. There are hundreds or millions of copies of each different type of enzyme, depending on how important a reaction is to a cell and how often the reaction is needed. These enzymes do everything from breaking glucose down for energy to building cell walls, constructing new enzymes and allowing the cell to reproduce. Enzymes do all of the work inside cells.
