Example Sentences:
(1) The improvement, during evolution, of the catalytic performance of individual subunits implies that three structural requirements are met in the course of an enzyme reaction: the unstrained enzyme subunits exist in the ground states under two conformations, one corresponding to the non-liganded state and the other to the liganded state; the inter-subunit strain is relieved in the various transition states; the subunits bound to the various transition states S not equal to, X not equal to and P not equal to have the same conformation.
(2) Collagen fibrils in unstrained ligamentum flavum were much more disoriented than in the longitudinal ligaments.
(3) If subunits are tightly coupled and if the strained non-liganded and half-liganded states are destabilized with respect to the corresponding unstrained states, that is if they contain more conformational energy, the oligomeric enzyme is more catalytically efficient than the ideally isolated subunits.
(4) However, if one assumes that the detachment rate constant of an unstrained head in a fiber is comparable to that of an S1 molecule in solution, this effect is not large enough to explain why some of the rate constants for force decay after a stretch in rigor, or in the presence of ATP analogues such as adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate, appear to be significantly slower than the detachment rate constant of S1 from actin in solution.
(5) For unstrained fibers the pattern of exchange shows that there is more than one pathway for hydrolysis, due to the ATPase activity of cross-bridges.
