Comprehensive Enzyme Kinetics
Vladimir Leskovac Kluwer
2004 ISBN: 0306467127

http://rapidshare.de/files/1731206/Comprehensive_enzyme_kinetics.zip.html

Description
This text for advanced courses in enzyme chemistry and enzyme kinetics covers the field of steady-state enzyme kinetics from the basic principles inherent in the Michaelis-Menten equation to expressions that describe the multi-substrate enzyme reactions, providing a framework for the study of enzymes with the aid of kinetic studies of enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Discussion encompasses chemical kinetics, kinetics of monosubstrate reactions, and cooperative and allosteric effects.
Australian Journal of Chemistry , January 2004
Comprehensive Enzyme Kinetics by Vladimir Leskovac Kluwer Academic/Plenum Publishers, Dordrecht. 2003, 442 pp. ISBN 0-306-46712-7, Hardcover, US Dollars 118.00 Like most books on enzyme kinetics, Leskovac’s treatise starts with an introduc-tion to protein structure and basic hemical kinetics and catalysis, which leads into the derivation of the Michaelis–Menten equation. You could say it follows the same old formula! But where Comprehensive Enzyme Kinetics excels over similar publications is in its outstanding depth of treatment of the subject, while retaining a simplicity of argument that novices to the world of enzyme kinetics can follow. That’s not to say it’s not heavy-going at times—vast equations containing dozens of numerator and denominator terms are regularly derived. But such complex kinetic analysis are regularly accompanied by simple diagrams and graphical treatment, outlining the important slope and intercept values than can be determined and how these relate to the mechanism of an enzymatic reaction. Following Michaelian treatment of monosubstrate reactions, the King–Altman method of deriving rate equations is explained from first principles, something many other monographs take for granted. Chapter 5 then describes the common types of enzyme inhibition, before more complex nonlinear examples are outlined in Chapter 6. In Chapters 8 through 12 the kinetics of bisubstrate and trisubstrate reactions are discussed in detail. Throughout the book the author tries to describe all possible variations of enzyme mechanisms and inhibition types, providing fully derived rate equations and graphical analysis. Ordered or random; UniBi or BiBi; Theorell–Chance or ping-pong; even the partial rapid equilibrium ping pong bi bi’ mechanism—they are all there. In these chapters the treatment gets detailed and the algebraphobic may baulk, but perusal of the pages for summary graphs, tables, and diagrams will yield the required information for those who just want the answers without deriving them in full. The complex analysis, while perhaps requiring several passes by non-specialists, is such that experienced enzymologists searching for rigorous treatment of a specific mechanism will be pleased to find all the information they require, and more. Allosteric and cooperative effects and the effects of temperature and pH on enzyme catalysis are discussed in Chapters 13–15, followed by chapters on isotope exchange and kinetic isotope effects. The book concludes with a section on the all-too-often neglected statistical analysis of data, outlining deficiencies with the various graphical representations of rate data, and describing methods that allow for model discrimination, including numerous programs for computer analysis of data.

BioNMR in Drug Research

Series: Methods and Principles in Medicinal Chemistry
Published Online: 04 Mar 2003 Editor(s): Dr. Oliver Zerbe
Series Editor(s): Prof. Dr. Raimund Mannhold, Prof. Dr. Hugo Kubinyi, Prof. Dr. Gerd Folkers
Print ISBN: 3527304657 Online ISBN: 3527600663
Copyright © 2002 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA
Hardcopy: $210

The vast progress made in the investigation of biomolecules using NMR has only recently been rewarded with the Nobel Prize for Kurt Wuthrich. Editied by a former coworker of Wuthrich, this book presents the theoretical background on NMR of biomolecules, plus the use of NMR techniques in determining the structures of proteins and nucleic acids.

BioNMR spectroscopy offers a universal tool for examining the binding of an active substance to its target protein. Its use thereby benefits the rational development of drugs. This interaction can now be investigated in a hitherto unparalleled precision and displayed in 3D-an important prerequisite for the targeted development of new active substances, The latest methods for characterizing substance-receptor complexes are demonstrated backed by many case studies from pharmaceutical reseach. Thus it comes as no surprise that a large number of the authors are working for leading pharmaceutical companies.

With its successful mixture of basic information and application strategies, coupled with many real-life examples, this is an invaluable guide for both NMR spectroscopists and pharmaceutical researchers.

New Ingredients in food Processing - Biochemistry and Agriculture

ISBN: 1855734435 Author: G. Linden / D. Lorient / Guy Linden / Denis Lorient
Publisher: CRC Press

The food industry has seen a rapid expansion in the manufacture of tailor-made ingredients for use in secondary processing. This new generation of intermediate food products (or IFPs) is transforming the food industry, offering greater flexibility, functionality, and consistency in processing. New Ingredients in Food Processing provides the food industry professional with a guide to the range of intermediate food products, their functionality, methods of manufacture, and applications. The first part of the book examines the development of IFPs, common functional properties, and methods of extraction and purification. It then covers IFPs derived from plants, milk, eggs, meat, and fish. IFPs from by-products such as whey and blood are also discussed. In part two, the book reviews IFPs manufactured from carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, and natural pigments and aromas. In each case, the authors cover composition and functional properties, methods of manufacture, and applications.
