Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. Finally, he looks at the many varied ways in which individual enzymes, taken out of their biological context, are used nowadays as tools - in washing powders, food production, waste treatment, and chemical synthesis.
He also examines medical aspects of enzymes, both in the way faulty enzymes cause disease and in the wayĮnzymes can be used for diagnosis and therapy. Paul Engel shows how X-ray crystallography has revealed the complex molecular shapes that allow enzymes to function at an extraordinarily sophisticated level. This Very Short Introduction explains the why and the how of speeding up these reactions - catalysis - before going on to reveal how we have evolved these catalysts of such extraordinary power and exquisite selectivity. Working together, teams of enzymes carry out all the processes that collectively we recognise as life, from making DNA to digesting food.
Each one of these small proteins speeds up a single chemical reaction inside a living organism many millionfold. Release of 23-Feb-22 Hydrolases Glycosylases Glycosidases, ie.
