(2) A factor analysis was used to determine whether induced loudness adaptation (Botte, Canevet, & Scharf, 1982; Scharf, 1983) and adaptation measured by Hood's (1950) classic Simultaneous Dichotic Loudness Balance technique (SDLB) would cluster on the same factors.

(9) Examination of residual King-Altman patterns for the general modifier model of Botts & Morales [(1953) Trans.
(10) Since its Km for actin is similar to that of tryptic SF1(A2), it may be concluded that changes in the affinity of SF1 for actin induced by trypsin [Botts, J., Muhlrad, A., Takashi, R., & Morales, M. F. (1982) Biochemistry 21, 6903-6905] are not dependent on the presence of the associated alkali light chain.

(16) Bott and Ultsch (1986) observed that the subtilisin BPN' structure is very tolerant of single mutations, and this tolerance may have been necessary for survival of the enzyme during the course of evolution.
(17) Howevever, David Bott, director of innovation programmes at the Technology Strategy Board , has previously told the Guardian he was sceptical that such charging lanes would be practical: "It's scientifically feasible, but it's whether it's scalable and feasible is another matter."
(18) Kinetic analysis of the extended Botts-Morales mechanism describing irreversible enzyme inactivation has demonstrated that analytical expressions describing the time-course of product formation may be derived for a stable modifier by retaining the usual steady-state assumptions regarding the fluxes around ES and EXS provided quasi-equilibrium modifier binding to E and ES is assumed, but for unstable modifiers all of the binding steps must be assumed to be at quasi-equilibrium in the steady-state, except under restrictive circumstances.
(19) It should be looked into in a transparent way,” Bott said.
(20) Analytical expressions describing the time-dependence of product formation have been derived in coefficient form amenable to non-linear regression analysis for two operationally distinct types of reaction mechanism dependent on whether the reaction of the unstable modifier (X) with either or both the free enzyme (E) and enzyme-substrate complex (ES) occurs as a simple bimolecular process, or proceeds through the intermediacy of either or both adsorptive enzyme-modifier (EX) and enzyme-modifier-substrate (EXS) complexes in what may be considered as an extension of the Botts-Morales general modifier mechanism for (stable) reversible enzyme inhibitors and activators.
