Published: 2012-03-29 | ISBN: 0982477317 | PDF | 322 pages | 11.74 MB
Enzyme Kinetics for System Biology is geared towards those who need a reference or classroom textbook that describes the various rate laws one can use to build computer models of cellular networks. The book covers commonly addressed topics such as rapid-equilibrium and steady state kinetics, including chapters on inhibitors, activators, cooperatively and allostery. The text book also includes topics more relevant to systems biology; these include chapters on elasticities, generalized rate laws and kinetics laws used to describe gene expression. Exercises are provided in most chapters with a summary of all the major kinetic rate laws in an appendix. Chapters include:
Reaction Kinetics
Elasticities
Basic Enzyme Kinetics
Enzyme Inhibition and Activation
Multireactant Rate Laws
Cooperativity
Allostery
Generalized Rate Laws
Kinetics of Gene Regulation
Basic Thermodynamics
