Stereochemistry of Substrate Binding and Hydrolysis in the Trypsin Family of Enzymes

  • Conference paper
Proteinase Inhibitors

Part of the book series: Bayer-Symposium ((BAYER-SYMP,volume 5))

Abstract

This introductory review aims to describe the three-dimensional molecular structure found at the active site of crystalline trypsin and its homologues; to show how small substrate analogues and inhibitors have been found to interact with the active site of crystals; to relate these structural observations to our knowledge of the specificity of these enzymes; and to indicate how they can be reconciled with our ideas of the catalytic mechanism.
