As catalysts for the majority of metabolic and biochemical reactions in the body, enzymes are important drug targets as well as useful synthetic catalysts. Enzyme kinetics is the study of the speed of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction and provides useful knowledge that aids in the design of enzyme-based processes. A. G. Marangonis Enzyme Kinetics: A Modern Approach provides a practical, how-to guide for students, technicians, and nonspecialists to evaluate enzyme kinetics, using common software packages to perform easy enzymatic analyses.
The treatment of enzyme kinetics in this book is radically different from the way the topic is traditionally covered. Marangoni stresses an understanding of how researchers arrive at models, what the models limitations are, and how they can be used in practical ways to analyze enzyme kinetic data. With the advent of computers, linear transformations of models have become unnecessaryEnzyme Kinetics does away with all linear transformations of enzyme kinetic models, advancing the use of nonlinear regression techniques. Marangoni develops new ways to carry out analyses of enzyme kinetic data, particularly in the study of pH effects on catalytic activity and multisubstrate enzymes. Other topics addressed include:
Enzyme Kinetics is a handy, innovative resource for practicing researchers in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food science industries.
