Think about what enzymes do. Think of what we are made of.
Here is one example to set the ball rolling.
Imagine you were working with a protease- it breaks down protein- what do we contain a lot of? Enzyme reactions form catalytic activity are usually quiet rare but definitely count as a risk for some enzymes.
Any biological substance can cause an immune response.
I'm sure you can work things out from there.
