Abstract

Enzymes make complex life possible. With very few exceptions, each of the tens of thousands of chemical reactions that sustain living systems takes place quickly and smoothly through the action of a specific enzyme. The high rates and selectivities of enzymes make them ideal catalysts for in vitro processes, as well, and they are being utilized increasingly in research, industry, and medicine.
