Definition: Biological molecules that possess catalytic activity. They may occur naturally or be synthetically created. Enzymes are usually proteins, however CATALYTIC RNA and CATALYTIC DNA molecules have also been identified.  general only: avoid; prefer specific enzyme or / enzymol: Manual 19.7+, 19.8.30; policy: Manual 25.18+; SUBSTRATE SPECIFICITY, restricted to enzymes, is available; ENZYME TESTS, CLINICAL is available for measuring the level of a specific enzyme in the di
