In this article we will discuss about the medical applications of enzymes in analysis and therapy. About 50 different enzymes are being used for clinical diagnoses. Two of the major enzymes are peroxidases from horseradish and alkaline phosphatase from beef intestinal mucosa. Both of these are required for immunoassays. The enzymes are used in test strips, EL1SA, biosensors and auto-analyzers. [...]
The following points highlight the six main types of enzymes that are associated with enzymes and some of them plays a key role in replication. The types are: 1. The Nucleases 2. The Ligases 3. Restriction Enzymes 4. The Polymerases 5. The Swivelases 6. Unwinding Enzymes and Proteins. Type # 1. The Nucleases: Enzymes which catalyse the breakdown of particular [...]
