With the extensive application of enzyme-catalyzed reactions in numerous fields, improving enzymatic efficiency has attracted wide attention for reducing operating costs and increasing output. There are three targets throughout enzymatic reactions: the enzyme, substrate, and mixed reaction system. Ultrasound has been known to accelerate enzymatic reactions by acting on different targets. It can modify both enzyme and substrate macromolecules, which is helpful for enhancing enzyme activity and product yields. The synergistic effect of ultrasound and enzymes is widely reported to increase catalytic rates. The present review discusses the positive effect induced by ultrasound throughout the enzymatic process, including ultrasonic modification of enzymes, ultrasound assisted immobilization, ultrasonic pretreatment of substrates, and ultrasound assisted enzymatic reactions.
