How do enzymes work?
The principle of transition-state stabilization asserts that the occurrence of enzymic catalysis is equivalent to saying that an enzyme binds the transition state much more strongly than it binds the ground-state reactants. An outline of the origin and gradual acceptance of this idea is presented, and elementary transition-state theory is reviewed. It is pointed out that a misconception about t...
متن کاملRed blood cell antioxidant enzymes in age-related macular degeneration.
AIMS/BACKGROUND Oxidative damage has been proposed to be involved in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether red blood cell antioxidant enzyme activity correlates with severity of aging maculopathy in affected individuals. METHODS Blood samples were obtained from 54 patients with varying severity of aging maculopathy and 1...
متن کاملHow Do We Do Hypothesis Testing?
The current, nearly omnipresent, approach to hypothesis testing in all of the social sciences is a synthesis of the Fisher test of significance and the Neyman-Pearson hypothesis test. In this “modern” procedure, two hypotheses are posited: a null or restricted hypothesis (H0) which competes with an alternative or research hypothesis (H1) describing two complementary notions about some phenomeno...
متن کاملRed cell enzymes.
Mutations leading to red cell enzyme deficiencies can be associated with diverse phenotypes that range from hemolytic anemia, methemoglobinemia, polycythemia, and neurological and developmental abnormalities. While most of these mutations occur sporadically, some such as common glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) mutants are endemic and rarely cause disease. Common G6PD mutants likely reac...
متن کاملHow do enzymes really work?
My understanding is that “reflections” can cover a multitude of sins. I have previously written a brief history of my career, and do not want to duplicate that exposition (1). Instead, this “reflection” will trace a primary focus of my laboratory for many decades, namely how do enzymes achieve their remarkable catalytic efficiency? (Indeed this has been a focal point of the field of biochemistr...
