This book covers the most recent developments in the analysis of
allosteric enzymes and provides a logical introduction to the limits for
enzyme function as dictated by the factors that are limits for life. The
book presents a complete description of all the mechanisms used for
changing enzyme activity. It is extensively illustrated to clarify
kinetic and regulatory properties. Eight enzymes are used as model
systems after extensive study of their mechanisms. Wherever possible,
the human form of the enzyme is used to illustrate the regulatory
features.
