Biochemistry. A protein molecule produced by organisms that catalyses a chemical reaction without being altered itself (biocatalyst). Enzymes have a highly specific function. Mostly, they only catalize one specific reaction of one specific molecule (substrate). An enzyme's name consists of a description of what it does or which substrate it uses, with the word ending in -ase.
