From [en], coined 1878 by the German physiologist [Wilhelm Kühne] from [en]
[grc].
*** Pronunciation
- [en]
- [en]

*** Noun
[~]
1. [en] [en] A biomolecule that catalyses a biological chemical reaction : either a globular protein with this function or an RNA molecule with this function.
1. [en] [en] The protein type specifically.
2. [en] Leavened bread , as opposed to azyme .
**** Usage notes
Before 1980, protein enzymes were the only known type, so the word _enzyme_
invariably meant that type. Since RNA catalysis was discovered, ribozymes are
often viewed as a type of enzyme (in the newer and broader sense of the word),
but even today, their name is often used coordinately with the stricter sense.
