How can the enzymes be classified? Explain giving examples.

Based on structure, enzymes can be classified into monomeric enzymes and oligomeric compounds.

Monomeric enzymes: Enzymes which consist of only a single polypeptide chain, so they can't be dissociated into smaller units, for example, carboxypeptidase A, pepsin, chymosin etc.

Oligomeric enzymes: Enzymes which consist of more than one polypeptide chain for example, lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate dehydrogenase, tryptophan synthase.
