Synopsis

General Description of the Volume:
This volume, as do the other Enzyme Kinetics and Mechanism volumes in the Methods in Enzymology series, provides treatment of dynamic and chemical approaches for investigating enzyme catalysis and regulation, as well as designing metabolic inhibitors. It will greatly interest those involved in enzyme chemistry, metabolic control, and drug design. It should also interest those developing commercial applications for enzymes whose properties have been re-engineered using recombinant DNA technology and site-directed mutagenesis.
General Description of the Series:
The critically acclaimed laboratory standard for more than forty years, Methods in Enzymology is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Since 1955, each volume has been eagerly awaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. Now with more than 300 volumes (all of them still in print), the series contains much material still relevant today--truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences.

• Mechanisms of enzyme catalysis and inhibition
• Enzyme structure and function
• Regulatory control of enzymes
• Action of catalytic antibodies and ribozymes

About this title

From the Publisher

Praise for the Series "The Methods in Enzymology series represents the gold-standard." (Neuroscience)

"Incomparably useful." (Analytical Biochemistry)

"...including almost every detail from basic theory to sources of equipment and reagents, with timely documentation provided on each page." (Bio/Technology)

"...It should be on the shelves of all libraries in the world as a whole collection." (Chemistry in Industry)

"The appearance of another volume in that excellent series, Methods in Enzymology, is always a cause for appreciation..." (American Society of Microbiology News)

"If we had some way to find the work most often consulted in the laboratory, it could well be...Methods in Enzymology." (Enzymologia)

"A series that has established itself as a definitive reference for biochemists." (Journal of Chromatography)

From the Back Cover

This book covers the significant new developments that have expanded the scope of enzyme chemistry. At the most fundamental level, Nature's use of nucleic acids as enzymes became evident as did the ability of enzyme chemists to design catalytic antibodies as synthetic enzymes.
