Enzymatic Kinetic Issues and Controversies Surrounding Gibbs Free Energy of Activation and Arrhenius Activation Energy

Ikechukwu I. Udema & Abraham Olalere Onigbinde · Asian Journal of Physical and Chemical Sciences · 2020

Background: The equation of the difference between reverse and forward Gibbs free energy of activation (ΔΔGES#) reflects Michaelis-Menten constant (KM) in both directions; this may not be applicable to all enzymes even if the reverse reaction is speculatively Michaelian. Arrheniu...

Open access Research Article 10.9734/ajopacs/2019/v7i430103

The Experimentally Determined Velocity of Catalysis could be Higher in the Absence of Sequestration

Ikechukwu I. Udema & Abraham Olalere Onigbinde · Asian Journal of Research in Biochemistry · 2019

Background: It is not unusual to observe calculated “total” free enzyme ([E]) in enzyme catalysed reaction, but this should include total enzyme-substrate complex ([EST]) which accounts for sequestration. Objectives: 1) To show indirectly that the velocities of catalytic action c...

Open access Research Article 10.9734/ajrb/2019/v5i430098

The State of Proteins not with Standing, Translational Velocity is Vital for their Function

Ikechukwu Iloh Udema & Abraham Olalere Onigbinde · Asian Journal of Research in Biochemistry · 2019

Background: Targeting of macromolecules by means of translational diffusion for therapeutic reason is generally of interest. But translational velocity that enables directional delivery of any molecule on target is given less attention. Objectives: The objectives of this research...

Open access Research Article 10.9734/ajrb/2019/v5i330089

Theoretical Insight into Preferential Interaction Issues and Solution Structure, and Contentious Apparent Hydrated Molar Volume of Cosolute

Ikechukwu Iloh Udema & Abraham Olalere Onigbinde · Asian Journal of Research in Biochemistry · 2019

Background: There seems to be a mathematical or a conceptual error in an equation whose substitution into other equations for the determination of an apparent hydrated molar volume (V1) of a cosolute leads to an incorrect answer. Objectives: The objectives are 1) To show theoreti...

Open access Research Article 10.9734/ajrb/2019/v5i230087

Theoretical Investigation into the Change in the Number of Water Molecules in Solvent Inaccessible Region of an Enzyme and Enzyme-substrate Complex

Ikechukwu Iloh Udema & Abraham Olalere Onigbinde · Asian Journal of Research in Biochemistry · 2019

Background: There may be dry enzymes, but water remains indispensable for the catalytic action of enzymes. There is not as much interest in how the presence of a drug such as aspirin and a psychoactive compound such as ethanol may affect the water-mediated role of the enzyme. Obj...

Open access Research Article 10.9734/ajrb/2019/v5i230085

Basic Kirkwood – Buff Theory of Solution Structure and Appropriate Application of Wyman Linkage Equation to Biochemical Phenomena

Ikechukwu Iloh Udema & Abraham Olalere Onigbinde · Asian Journal of Physical and Chemical Sciences · 2019

Background: Researchers who have shown interest in the consequence of introducing dry biomolecules or a solution of it into cosolvents generally known as osmolyte, have applied many models for the elucidation of the scientific basis of the results obtained. The Kirkwood and Buff...

Effect of Interacting Organic Co-solutes with Enzyme Substrate Complex on the Hydrolysis of Raw Soluble Starch with -amylase: Theory and Experimentation

Ikechukwu Iloh Udema & Abraham Olalere Onigbinde · Advances in Research · 2016

Aims: The objectives of the in vitro study were to examine the applicability of thermodynamic models for the interaction of reaction mixture components to enzyme catalyzed reaction, and to determine the effect of co – solutes on the velocity of hydrolysis of a substrate with alph...
