Description
Kinetic studies of enzyme action provide powerful insights into the underlying mechanisms of catalysis and regulation. These approaches
are equally useful in examining the action of newly discovered enzymes and therapeutic agents.
Contemporary Enzyme Kinetics
and Mechanism, Second Edition presents key articles from Volumes 63, 64, 87, 249, 308 and 354 of
Methods in Enzymology.
The chapters describe the most essential and widely applied strategies. A set of exercises and problems is included to facilitate mastery
of these topics.
The book will aid the reader to design, execute, and analyze kinetic experiments on enzymes. Its emphasis on enzyme
inhibition will also make it attractive to pharmacologists and pharmaceutical chemists interested in rational drug design.
Of the
seventeen chapters presented in this new edition, ten did not previously appear in the first edition.
