The Adaptation of Complexity in the Evolution of Macromolecules [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Enzymes are on the front lines of evolution. All living organisms rely on highly efficient, specific enzymes for growth, sustenance, and reproduction; and many diseases are a consequence of a mutation on an enzyme that affects its catalytic function. It follows that the function of an enzyme affects the fitness of an organism, but just as rightfully ...

A novel method for quantifying enzyme immobilization in porous carriers using simple NMR relaxometry [PDF]
arXivEnzyme immobilization plays a crucial role in enhancing the stability and recyclability of enzymes for industrial applications. However, traditional methods for quantifying enzyme loading within porous carriers are limited by time-consuming workflows, cumulative errors, and the inability to probe enzymes adsorbed inside the pores.

The enzyme cost of given metabolic flux distributions, as a function of logarithmic metabolite levels, is convex [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Enzyme costs play a major role in the choice of metabolic routes, both in evolution and bioengineering. Given desired fluxes, necessary enzyme levels can be estimated based on known rate laws and on a principle of minimal enzyme cost. With logarithmic metabolite levels as free variables, enzyme cost functions and constraints in optimality and sampling ...
