### substance | activator | enzyme:

Polymerase
* Most polymerases have functions
  - require for synthesis
* Some polymerases interfere with replication.
* are classified according to the type of template that they use
  - enzymes that synthesize polynucleotide chains from nucleoside triphosphates
* attenuates ischemic renal injury in rats.
* includes chemical chain
  - groups
* start at each primer and copy the sequence of that strand.
* stimulate production.
* work from the DNA complement of the sequence to be built.

### substance | activator | enzyme:

Protease
* Many proteases are stored in the body in inactive forms called zymogens
  - reside within spezialized membrane-surrounded organelles, such as lysosomes
* act as molecular scissors.
* acts as a scavenger of oxidized and damaged proteins.
* are all hydrolases - i.e. they cleave bonds by hydrolysis
  - also responsible for the pathogenic effects of many kinds of bacteria
  - enzymes necessary for viral replication
* are enzymes that break down proteins into smaller, usable amino acids
  - cut protein chains in two
  - hydrolyze amide bonds of proteins and peptides
  - which degrade or break down other proteins and enzymes
  - likely to participate in the biogenetic processes of some protein complexes
  - proteins that degrade other proteins
  - the most commonly used enzymes in leather production
  - used throughout an organism for various metabolic processes
  - vital proteins that serve for order within cells
* can be either reversible or irreversible
  - endogenous or exogenous
  - break down proteins and can therefore cause extensive damage to normal cells
  - regulate their own activation, resulting in an exponential rate of activation
* cause destruction of blood-vessel basement membrane, and bronchial mucous secretion.
* cleave their protein products to yield the envelope, capsid, and replication proteins.
* cleaves longer proteins into smaller core proteins.
* consist of enzymes that break down proteins.
* degrade proteins.
* disrupt the structure of mucin.
* general term for any enzyme that can cut up proteins.
* generally act on proteins in one of two ways.
* helps assemble the new virions
  - yeast find mating partners
* is an enzyme
  - that digests protein
  - another crucial enzyme for maintaining a healthy body
* is the enzyme that breaks down protein
  - breaksdown protein
  - digests proteins, amylase digests carbohydrates, and lipase digests fat
* occur in all organisms, from prokaryotes to eukaryotes to viruses.
* plays an important role in the final step of making a virus particle.
* polymorphic enzyme.
* powerful formula that assists in the digestion of proteins.

### substance | activator | enzyme | protease:

Caspase
* are a specific set of death inducers that some IAPs inhibit
  - cellular enzymes that bring about apoptosis
  - cysteine proteases that play a central role in apoptosis
* are enzymes involved in the destruction of cells
  - that signal a damaged or worn out cell to commit suicide
  - key enzymes involved in regulating apoptosis
  - proteases, which means they digest proteins
  - proteins that play a role in cell death
  - ubiquitously expressed, therefore every cell is poised for rapid self destruction
* cleave target proteins at specific aspartate sites.
* comprise a family of cysteine endopeptidases expressed in erythrocytes.
* digest relevant cellular materials and structures.
* help eliminate unneeded cells in the developing fetus.

### substance | activator | enzyme | protease | caspase:

Initiator caspase
* activate effector caspases.
* cleave inactive forms of effector caspases.

Proteinase
* are endopeptidases which can cleave bonds in proteins.
* is an enzyme
