Kinetics of suicide substrates

S G Waley

    The Biochemical Journal
    |March 1, 1980
    PubMed
    Summary

    Enzyme inactivation by suicide substrates occurs alongside product formation during catalysis. New equations describe these concurrent processes, applicable when using catalytic enzyme quantities.
