Page Intentionally Left Blank Preface T he biotic world is doubtlessly the best known example of what Nobelist Murray Gell-Mann has termed ‘‘complex adaptive systems’’—a name given to those systems possessing the innate capacity to learn and evolve by utilizing acquired information Those familiar with living systems cannot but marvel at each cell’s ability to grow, to sense, to communicate, to cooperate, to move, to proliferate, to die and, even then, to yield opportunity to succeeding cells If we dare speak of vitalism, especially as the new millennium is eager to dawn, we only so to recognize that homeostatic mechanisms endow cells with such remarkable resilience that early investigators mistook homeostasis as a persuasive indication that life is self-determining and beyond the laws of chemistry and physics A shared goal of modern molecular life scientists is to understand the mechanisms and interactions responsible for homeostasis One approach for analyzing the mechanics of complex systems is to determine the chronology of discrete steps within the overall process—a pursuit called ‘‘kinetics.’’ This strategy allows an investigator to assess the structural and energetic determinants of transitions from one step to the next By identifying voids in the time-line, one considers the possibility of other likely intermediates and ultimately identifies all elementary reactions of a mechanism Kinetics is an analytical approach deeply rooted in chemistry and physics, and biochemists have intuitively and inventively honed the tools of chemists and physicists for experiments on biological processes Biochemical kinetics first began to flourish in enzymology—a field which has gainfully exploited advances in physical organic chemistry, structural chemistry, and spectroscopy in order to dissect the individual steps comprising enzyme mechanisms No apology is offered, nor should any be required, for our strong emphasis on chemical kinetics and enzyme kinetics Scientists working within these dis- Handbook of Biochemical Kinetics ciplines have enjoyed unparalleled success in dissecting complex multistage processes Mechanisms are tools for assessing current knowledge and for designing better experiments As working models, mechanisms offer the virtues of simplicity, precision, and generativity ‘‘Simplicity’’ arises from the symbolic representation of the interactions among the minimal number of components needed to account for all observed properties of a system ‘‘Precision’’ emerges by considering how rival models have nonisomorphic features (i.e., testable differences) that distinguish one from another ‘‘Generativity’’ results from the recombining of a model’s constituent elements to admit new findings, to predict new properties, and to stimulate additional rounds of experiment For chemical and enzyme kineticists, the goal of this recursive enterprise is to determine a mechanism (a) that accounts for responses to changes in each component’s concentration, (b) that explains the detailed time-evolution of all chemical events, (c) that defines the concentration and structure of transient intermediates, (d) that makes sense of relevant changes in positional properties (i.e., conformation, configuration, and/or physical location), and (e) that reconciles the thermodynamics of all reactions steps and transitions In this respect, the rigor of chemical and enzyme kinetics teaches us all how best to invent new approaches that appropriately balance theory and experiment The inspiration for this HANDBOOK stemmed from our shared interest in teaching students about the logical and systematic investigation of enzyme catalysis and metabolic control We began twenty-five years ago with the teaching of graduate-level courses (‘‘Chemical Aspects of Biological Systems’’; ‘‘Enzyme Kinetics and Mechanism’’) at the University of California Santa Barbara as well as a course entitled ‘‘Enzyme Kinetics’’ at the Cornell University Medical College More recently, we have vii Preface taught undergraduate students (‘‘A Survey of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology’’) as well as graduate students (‘‘Advanced Metabolism’’; ‘‘Physical Biochemistry and Structural Biology’’; ‘‘Dynamic Processes in the Molecular Life Sciences’’) here at the University of Florida Our lectures have included material on the theory and practice of steady-state kinetics, rapid reaction kinetics, isotope-exchange kinetics, inhibitor design, equilibrium and kinetic isotope effects, protein oligomerization and polymerization kinetics, pulse-chase kinetics, transport kinetics, biomineralization kinetics, as well as ligand binding, cooperativity, and allostery Because no existing text covered the bulk of these topics, we resorted to developing an extensive set of lecture notes—an activity that encouraged us to consider writing what we initially had envisioned as a short textbook on biochemical kinetics What also became clear was that, before and during any detailed consideration of a molecular process, teachers must always take pains to explain the associated terminology adequately In 1789, the French chemist Antoine Lavoisier aptly declared: ‘‘Every branch of physical science must consist of the series of facts that are the objects of the science, the ideas that represent these facts, and the words by which these ideas are expressed And, as ideas are preserved and communicated by means of words, it necessarily follows that we cannot improve the science without improving language or nomenclature.’’ We recognized that there was no published resource to help students come to grips with the far-ranging terminology of biochemical kinetics Furthermore, as the distinction between scientific disciplines becomes blurred by what may be called ‘‘the interdisciplinary imperative,’’ students and practicing scientists from other disciplines will require a reliable sourcebook that explains terminology Far too much time is wasted when students trace a finger over many pages of a textbook, only to find a partial definition for a sought-after term Moreover, as more bioscientists come from countries not using English as a working language, there is an even greater need for a reliable and clearly written sourcebook of definitions A dictionary format became an appealing possibility for our HANDBOOK, but we also wished to treat many terms in greater depth than found in any dictionary This led us to adopt the present word-list format which in many viii respects resembles the ‘‘Micropaedia’’ section of the ENCYCLOPAEDIA BRITANNICA One loses the seamless organization that can be realized in multichapter expositions that systematically develop a series of topics We have accordingly attempted to mitigate this problem by including longer tracts on absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, biomineralization, chemical kinetics, enzyme kinetics, Hill and Scatchard treatments, ligand binding cooperativity, kinetic isotope effects, and protein polymerization Likewise, we have extensively inserted cross-references at appropriate locations within many entries One intrinsic advantage of a mini-encyclopedia, however, is that in subsequent printings we should be able to make corrections and additions, or even deletions of an entire term, without upsetting the overall format We also felt that readers should be encouraged to consult the most authoritative sources on particular topics For this reason, we developed a collection of over 5000 literature references and, in many cases, our citations credit the original papers on a given topic We have included the names of nearly 1000 enzymes, along with chemical reactions, EC numbers, and, in many instances, their biochemical and catalytic properties The references cited are not intended to be comprehensive; rather, they serve to guide the reader to further interesting and helpful reading on subjects we have discussed Where possible, at least one reference is included to provide information on assay protocols for the listed enzyme We also urge readers to use the Wordfinder (included at the back of the Handbook) to take fullest advantage of the text and reference material The nearly 8000 entries in the Wordfinder represent all listed source words as well as other subheadings, keywords, or synonyms Each entry is immediately followed by the recommended source entries, and many source words are also cross-referenced to guide the reader to other related source words One of us (D.L.P.) has been a member of the METHODS ENZYMOLOGY family of editors for well over two decades The volumes in this series on ‘‘Enzyme Kinetics and Mechanism’’ have become a standard for those interested in biological catalysis As the form of this book began to emerge, we quickly recognized that METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY could serve as an additional source for annotations on recommended theories and practices for kinetic studies on a wide range of topics The Handbook contains nearly 6000 METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY citaIN Handbook of Biochemical Kinetics Preface tions, and we have indicated the topic, volume, and beginning page for each at the foot of many of the source words We trust that users of our Handbook will benefit from improved access to the first 280 volumes of METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY For the derivations presented in this Handbook, we have assumed that the reader is familiar with the fundamentals of differential and integral calculus To those who are loathe to engage in the rigor of mathematics, we say ‘‘Take heart!’’ The successful study of kinetics requires only that students work out a considerable number of problems which are both theoretical and numerical in character We are reminded that Mithridates VI, the Grecian king of Pontus, is said to have acquired a tolerance to poison by taking gradually increasing doses To aid those seeking their own intellectual mithridate (i.e., acquired antidote), we provide scores of step-by-step derivations and practical advice on how to derive particular rate expressions Likewise, we have included detailed protocols for H J Fromm’s systematic ‘‘theory-of-graphs’’ method as well as W W Cleland’s net reaction rate method We are also greatly indebted to Dr Charles Y Huang for permitting us to include entire tracts from his chapter (which originally appeared in Volume 63 of METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY) on the derivation of initial velocity and isotope exchange rate equations We immediately recognized how daunting the task would be to attempt to surpass Dr Huang’s truly outstanding treatment The success of our HANDBOOK OF BIOCHEMICAL KINETICS can only be judged by those using this manual for some period of time We have come to recognize that we could not possibly represent all of the topics falling within the realm of biochemical kinetics—and certainly not within a first edition We are also certain that, despite a determined effort to cover the terminology of chemical Handbook of Biochemical Kinetics and enzyme kinetics, we have still overlooked some important issues We had also hoped to include additional kinetic techniques applied in pharmacokinetics, cell biology, electrophysiology, and metabolic control analysis Time constraints also prevented our developing mathematical sections on Laplace transforms, vector algebra, distribution functions, and especially statistics Eventually, we aspire to create a compact disk version of this Handbook, appropriately presented as hyperlinked text; that same CD should have room for selected problems/ exercises along with step-by-step solutions, as well as down-loadable programs for kinetic simulation, algorithms for symbolic derivation of rate equations, molecular dynamics and related modeling techniques, and tried-and-true statistical methods We also hope that our readers will not hesitate to advise us of shortcomings, missed terms, as well as techniques meriting definition, mention, or further explanation We shall be forever grateful for such guidance We thank our students and colleagues for reading earlier drafts of our manuscript, and we are especially grateful to both Shirley Light and Dolores Wright of Academic Press for their insights, help, and thorough editing of the text We also thank Academic Press for allowing us to incorporate the numerous annotations to METHODS IN ENZYMOLOGY Finally, as first- and second-generation disciples of Professor Herbert J Fromm, we dedicate this book to him, in recognition of his germinal and indelible contributions to the field of
