Computational Approaches to Biochemical Reactivity by Gábor Náray-Szabó,Arieh Warshel Pdf
A quantitative description of the action of enzymes and other biological systems is both a challenge and a fundamental requirement for further progress in our und- standing of biochemical processes. This can help in practical design of new drugs and in the development of artificial enzymes as well as in fundamental understanding of the factors that control the activity of biological systems. Structural and biochemical st- ies have yielded major insights about the action of biological molecules and the mechanism of enzymatic reactions. However it is not entirely clear how to use this - portant information in a consistent and quantitative analysis of the factors that are - sponsible for rate acceleration in enzyme active sites. The problem is associated with the fact that reaction rates are determined by energetics (i. e. activation energies) and the available experimental methods by themselves cannot provide a correlation - tween structure and energy. Even mutations of specific active site residues, which are extremely useful, cannot tell us about the totality of the interaction between the active site and the substrate. In fact, short of inventing experiments that allow one to measure the forces in enzyme active sites it is hard to see how can one use a direct experimental approach to unambiguously correlate the structure and function of enzymes. In fact, in view of the complexity of biological systems it seems that only computers can handle the task of providing a quantitative structure-function correlation.
Enzyme Reaction Kinetics and Reactor Performance by F. Xavier Malcata Pdf
Provides a thorough study of the engineering of enzyme reactors, including comprehensive mathematical modeling and optimization Enzyme Reactor Engineering: Principles and Applications sequentially covers the three classical levels of description: macroscopic, or ideal; microscopic, or nonideal in terms of hydrodynamics (including homogeneous, nontrivial flow patterns, as well as heterogeneous systems); and submicroscopic, in terms of mixing. Major emphasis is placed on general simulation from first principles, rather than empirical correlation. This methodology rationally departs from balance equations, carefully eliminates overparameterization, and establishes dimensionless, simpler relationships; and builds on such models to find optima of relevance, while constructing rational strategies to approach common problems. This book begins with an organized introduction to enzyme reactor engineering, followed by two major parts—analysis of enzyme reaction kinetics, and analysis of enzyme reactor features. It concludes with a brief coverage of relevant mathematical concepts. A carefully paced approach, suitable even for nonspecialists, allows the reader to gain insight about the detailed kinetics of the reaction brought about by a general enzyme, and provides the complementary tools necessary to design and optimize the overall reactor behavior. Provides thorough study of the engineering of enzyme reactors, including comprehensive mathematical modeling, and coverage of additional topics (e.g. separation, control) required for effective integration and overall understanding Chapters introduce basic phenomenological principles and subsequently derive usable results, ending up with generic examples of germane applications Environmental concerns supporting white biotechnology, and a growing portfolio of available, tailored and less expensive enzymes on the market have turned enzyme reactors into a better and better performing (and recommended) technology for industrial implementation. Enzyme Reactor Engineering is thus the ideal text to support that effort–suitable for students, researchers, and practitioners working in chemical engineering, biochemistry, biological engineering, chemistry, physical chemistry, and applied physics.

Dynamic Analysis of Enzyme Systems by Katsuya Hayashi,Naoto Sakamoto Pdf
This book is concerned with a quantitative analysis of dynamic behavior of various enzymatic reaction systems by computer simulation. The authors and coworkers have been engaged in cooperative research since 1975, seeking to clarify the catalytic and regulatory characteristics of enzymatic reactions in vivo and control mechanisms suitable for enzyme technology. Rather than "enzyme kinetics" generally known in enzymol· ogy, this research has employed an approach called "enzyme dynamics" which concentrates on the exact schematic representation of an actual reac tion mechanism, derivation of rate equation on the basis of the scheme, and computer simulation of its dynamic behavior (numerical solution of the rate equation and explanation of kinetic and regulatory properties of the enzymatic reaction). A rate equation representing the behavior of enzymatic reactions is gen erally expressed by a set of nonlinear differential equations. The analytic solution of rate equations is therefore impossible in general, making it necessary to introduce some approximations in order to analyze the exper· imental data in enzyme kinetics. For example, under an assumption of excess substrate against enzyme in a closed system, we commonly use the linear approximation for the early period of reaction, the quasi-steady state approximation based on putative maintenance of steady state in en zyme species, and the rapid-equilibrium approximation assuming instantane ous equilibration in complex formation and between complexes. The kinetic characteristics obtained by these approximations do not always reflect the dynamic behavior of actual enzymatic reactions.
