Essentials of Enzymology provides concise information on an important area of the subject, Biochemistry. This may serve as course material for an advanced treatise in Enzymology designed for undergraduate science degree programs, especially B.Sc. (Hons ) Biochemistry and Chemistry. The book is in 12 chapters which has been divided into four distinct sections, thus (1) Basic enzyme chemistry and physiology. (2) Enzyme Kinetics, (3) Enzyme catalysis, Mechanisms and Regulation,(4)Applications of Enzymology. The Part 1 consists of four chapters that deal with the nature of enzymes- (history, properties and classifi cation), enzyme physiology; structure of enzymes, and analytical enzymology. Part 2 deals with Enzyme Kinetics which is treated in three chapters, and Part 3, made up of three chapters discuss Enzyme catalysis, mechanisms and regulation. Lastly, Part 4 consisting of two chapters deal with the applications of enzymology. Signifi cantly, the kinetics of enzyme catalyzed reactions in diverse experimental conditions, and also under various inhibition types are presented in a simple, mathematical lucid approach. The mechanisms of action for two atypical proteins-chymotrypsin and lysozyme, so also the identifi cation of active sites of enzymes by specifi c labels are discussed concisely. Lastly, the specifi c applications of enzymes in diagnostic medicine, industry, and also the new emerging area of enzyme biotechnology and enzyme bioinformatics are presented

Since the publication of the successful and popular second edition of Fundamentals of Enzymology in 1989 there has been a large increase in the knowledge of several aspects of enzymology, not least the rapid acceleration of structural characterization of enzymes and the development of the field of bioinformatics. This new edition places appropriate emphasis on the new knowledge and consolidates the strengths of the previous editions. As before, Fundamentals of Enzymology 3rd ed gives anall-round view of the field including enzyme purification and characterization, enzyme structure (including information on the web), enzyme kinetics, the mechanisms and control of enzyme action, enzyme folding, how enzymes act in vivo, enzyme synthesis and degradation, and also clinical and industrial applications of enzymology. Throughout the book, the integration of these themes is stressed.

Fundamentals of Enzyme Kinetics details the rate of reactions catalyzed by different enzymes and the effects of varying the conditions on them. The book includes the basic principles of chemical kinetics, especially the order of a reaction and its rate constraints. The text also gives an introduction to enzyme kinetics - the idea of an enzyme-substrate complex; the Michaelis-Menten equation; the steady state treatment; and the validity of its assumption. Practical considerations, the derivation of steady-state rate equations, inhibitors and activators, and two-substrate reactions are also explained. Problems after the end of each chapter have also been added, as well as their solutions at the end of the book, to test the readers' learning. The text is highly recommended for undergraduate students in biochemistry who wish to study about enzymes or focus completely on enzymology, as most of the mathematics used in this book, which have been explained in detail to remove most barriers of understanding, is elementary.

The macromolecular biological catalysts which accelerate chemical reactions are known as enzymes. They are an integral part of most of the metabolic processes in cells. They are involved in the conversion of substrates into different molecules known as products. The study of enzymes is known as enzymology. It deals with the study of their kinetics, structure and function. Enzyme kinetics is a sub-field of enzymology which seeks to study the processes through which substrates are bound by enzymes and turned into products. Some of the other functions of enzymes which are studied within this field are signal transduction and cell regulation. Different approaches, evaluations, methodologies and advanced studies on enzymes have been included in this textbook. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, it makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. The coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.

Enzymology is designed as a full-fledge textbook for the undergraduate engineering students of Biotechnology and Chemical Engineering. In addition, this book would also serve as an invaluable reference for students who are pursuing their graduate and postgraduate degree programs in Biotechnology, and all other life sciences programs that offer a course on Enzymes. The book covers all the fundamental and inevitable concepts like Enzyme Kinetics, Enzyme Inhibition, Enzyme Activity Regulation and proceeds in to discussion of applications of enzymes in various domains including Molecular Biology, Cloning and Genetic Engineering. A separate chapter has been devoted to the study of Enzyme Engineering and Technology, which the engineering students would find useful. Comprehensive in its coverage of topics, the book is rich in features like illustrations supporting the theoretical discussion, chapter-end summary, glossary of important terms and review questions to reinforce the learning. Numerical problems too have been provided in all the relevant chapters.

A knowledge of enzymes is essential in many scientific and industrial applications. This book aims to provide a firm understanding of the structure, properties, isolation and analysis of these important molecules. The emphasis is on the underpinning principles although the text reveals some of the practical issues and uses of enzymes. * Step-by-step logical development * Student centered learning style The need for a cost effective training scheme for new and existing staff at all levels has been met by the University of Greenwich (formerly Thames Polytechnic) and the Open University of the Netherlands. As part of the European Community Education and Technology Training initiative (COMETT) and in conjunction with a number of other leading UK and European universities, they are developing BIOTOL, a training scheme in biotechnology using open learning materials, which will provide tailor-made courses, flexible in content, pace and place.

Few scientists have the knowledge to perform the studies that are necessary to discover and characterize enzyme inhibitors, despite the vested interest the pharmaceutical industry has in this field. Beginning with the most basic principles pertaining to simple, one-substrate enzyme reactions and their inhibitors, and progressing to a thorough treatment of two-substrate enzymes, Kinetics of Enzyme Action: Essential Principles for Drug Hunters provides biochemists, medicinal chemists, and pharmaceutical scientists with numerous case study examples to outline the tools and techniques necessary to perform, understand, and interpret detailed kinetic studies for drug discovery.
