Stopped-flow kinetic studies of the cellulase-catalyzed conversion of cellulose to glucose.

abstract：:A simple methodology has been successfully employed to explain the solvent dependence of the substrate specificity of enzymes in organic media. This methodology, which does not require the knowledge of the enzyme structure and is thus applicable to lyophilized and other noncrystalline enzyme preparations, predicts tha...
