Sequential adsorption-electrophoresis: combined procedure for purification of calcium-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase.

abstract：:It has recently been demonstrated that coupled enzymatic processes may possess, for a particular choice of the state variables, multidimensional inflection points in thermodynamic force-flow space. The conditions for reciprocity in the linear region near such a reference state, which may be far from equilibrium, are o...
