056 - Biological and Polymer Systems In this video Paul Andersen explains how the structure of a biomolecule fits the function of the biomolecule. For example and enzyme must interact correctly with a substrate to lower the activation energy, The covalent and non-covalent interactions are both important in shaping large molecules. Knowledge of structure allows humans to create useful synthetic polymers (like nylon or kevlar). Do you speak another language?
