This is due, on the one hand, to the high chemical reactivity of these groups, which enter into many, and often very characteristic and selective, reactions with several types of compound. On the other hand, this attention is connected with the great significance of SH and S-S groups for the specific functions of a number of enzymes, hormones, and other biological ly active proteins, and consequently for the normal course of many physiological processes. The varied functions of sulfhydryl and disulfide groups in en zymes are particularly interesting; their role can consist of bind ing substrates and cofactors, in direct participation in the catalytic act, or in maintaining (in ways not so far sufficiently studied) the native, catalytically active conformation of the protein. It is entirely natural that the detailed study of the chemical behavior and biolog | 出版日期 | Book 1974 | 关键词 | amino acid; biology; enzyme; enzymes; protein; proteins; toxicology | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4757-0127-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4757-0129-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4757-0127-2 | copyright | Consultants Bureau, New York 1974 |
