Is there any study about how enzyme work on level atom ?
where i can read about subject ?

There has been a lot of work about how enzymes work at the atomic level. Most studies have used x-ray crystallography (and increasingly NMR spectroscopy and electron microscopy) to determine the three-dimensional structures of enzymes at atomic resolution. These pictures of enzymes can help reveal which parts of the enzyme are involved in performing catalysis and reveal regulatory mechanisms. Using these enzyme structures, biologists can then study enzyme catalysis computationally using molecular dynamics or other types of computer simulations.

Most biochemistry textbooks should talk about enzyme catalysis and mention structural studies of enzymes. The Protein Databank (http://www.rcsb.org/pdb) is a repository for atomic resolution structures of proteins, and it's molecule of the month feature talks about many enzymes and how they work.

Yes, there have been numerous studies conducted on how enzymes work on an atomic level. Enzymes are complex proteins that catalyze biochemical reactions in living organisms, and their function is dependent on their specific atomic structure. Scientists have used various techniques, such as X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, to study the atomic structure of enzymes and understand their mechanism of action. Additionally, computational methods have also been utilized to simulate enzyme reactions at the atomic level. You can find more information about these studies in scientific journals and textbooks on biochemistry and enzymology.
