Substrate specificity of homogeneous monkeypox virus uracil-DNA glycosylase.

abstract：:Theory for enzyme-catalyzed reactions is developed for the dependence on product concentration of deuterium isotope effects on V and V/K. Generally, a product that decreases the off-rate for a second product to zero causes the isotope effect on V/K to decrease to DKeq and that on V to decrease to a value between 1 and...
