Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essentials of Enzymology provides concise information on an important area of the subject, Biochemistry. This may serve as course material for an advanced treatise in Enzymology designed for undergraduate science degree programs, especially B.Sc. (Hons ) Biochemistry and Chemistry. The book is in 12 chapters which has been divided into four distinct sections, thus (1) Basic enzyme chemistry and physiology. (2) Enzyme Kinetics, (3) Enzyme catalysis, Mechanisms and Regulation,(4)Applications of Enzymology. The Part 1 consists of four chapters that deal with the nature of enzymes- (history, properties and classifi cation), enzyme physiology; structure of enzymes, and analytical enzymology. Part 2 deals with Enzyme Kinetics which is treated in three chapters, and Part 3, made up of three chapters discuss Enzyme catalysis, mechanisms and regulation. Lastly, Part 4 consisting of two chapters deal with the applications of enzymology. Signifi cantly, the kinetics of enzyme catalyzed reactions in diverse experimental conditions, and also under various inhibition types are presented in a simple, mathematical lucid approach. The mechanisms of action for two atypical proteins-chymotrypsin and lysozyme, so also the identifi cation of active sites of enzymes by specifi c labels are discussed concisely. Lastly, the specifi c applications of enzymes in diagnostic medicine, industry, and also the new emerging area of enzyme biotechnology and enzyme bioinformatics are presented

Download or read book Fundamentals of Enzyme Kinetics written by Athel Cornish-Bowden and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-20 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fundamentals of Enzyme Kinetics details the rate of reactions catalyzed by different enzymes and the effects of varying the conditions on them. The book includes the basic principles of chemical kinetics, especially the order of a reaction and its rate constraints. The text also gives an introduction to enzyme kinetics - the idea of an enzyme-substrate complex; the Michaelis-Menten equation; the steady state treatment; and the validity of its assumption. Practical considerations, the derivation of steady-state rate equations, inhibitors and activators, and two-substrate reactions are also explained. Problems after the end of each chapter have also been added, as well as their solutions at the end of the book, to test the readers' learning. The text is highly recommended for undergraduate students in biochemistry who wish to study about enzymes or focus completely on enzymology, as most of the mathematics used in this book, which have been explained in detail to remove most barriers of understanding, is elementary.
Download or read book Essentials of Enzymology written by Colby Smith and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The macromolecular biological catalysts which accelerate chemical reactions are known as enzymes. They are an integral part of most of the metabolic processes in cells. They are involved in the conversion of substrates into different molecules known as products. The study of enzymes is known as enzymology. It deals with the study of their kinetics, structure and function. Enzyme kinetics is a sub-field of enzymology which seeks to study the processes through which substrates are bound by enzymes and turned into products. Some of the other functions of enzymes which are studied within this field are signal transduction and cell regulation. Different approaches, evaluations, methodologies and advanced studies on enzymes have been included in this textbook. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, it makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. The coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.

Download or read book Understanding Enzymes written by Trevor Palmer and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This clear and lucid book helps towards an understanding of the principles of enzymology, a subject with a somewhat undeserved reputation for being difficult. The subject is explained most carefully, without rushing or cutting corners, in a coverage which is balanced, readable and comprehensive, accounting for both theory and applications. The book will act as a bridge for those wishing to progress to more advanced and specialised areas. New material has been added since publication of the first edition, revealing advances made since 1980, including NMR spectroscopy, HPLC, immunoassay, genetic engineering and structures of oligomeric enzymes. Fresh and stimulating problems have been devised, diagrams redrawn and sections on obsolete techniques removed to make way for the new material. The approach taken throughout encourages, where appropriate, correct answers to problems, thereby reinforcing the reader's understanding of enzymology by facing real-life difficulties.
