Far more than a comprehensive treatise on initial-rate and fast-reaction
kinetics, this one-of-a-kind desk reference places enzyme science in the fuller
context of the organic, inorganic, and physical chemical processes occurring
within enzyme active sites. Drawing on 2600 references, Enzyme Kinetics:
Catalysis & Control develops all the kinetic tools needed to define enzyme
catalysis, spanning the entire spectrum (from the basics of chemical kinetics
and practical advice on rate measurement, to the very latest work on
single-molecule kinetics and mechanoenzyme force generation), while also
focusing on the persuasive power of kinetic isotope effects, the design of
high-potency drugs, and the behavior of regulatory enzymes.
