The Role of Enzymes in Living Organisms. Enzymes are macromolecules that catalyze chemical reactions within a living organism. Most are proteins, but there are also RNA enzymes which aid in protein synthesis.

For example, digestive enzymes cause food that you eat to be broken down much faster than would occur without them, but they are not broken down in the reaction they are speeding up.
