Course Information
This course covers the essentials of enzyme kinetic analysis emphasizing concepts of importance in drug discovery. It provides an introduction to enzymology, assay methods, and free-energy diagrams; and also covers simple reversible inhibition and time-dependent inhibition; transition state rate theory and TS analog inhibitors; kinetics and inhibition of two substrate enzymatic reactions; screening for inhibitors of enzymatic reactions; and, probes of mechanism.
