Enzyme mechanisms are the chemical transformations, and the steps within them, generated by enzymatic action on substrates. The mechanism of enzyme catalysis is similar in principle to other types ...

pH is a measure of how acidic or alkaline a solution is. The diagram below shows what happens to an enzyme when denaturation occurs. Each enzyme has an optimum pH but it also has a working range ...

After hybridization of wild type and mutant DNA strands an enzyme is added that recognizes and cleaves bulges or mismatches in the DNA sequence. These enzymes come from bacterial species and are known ...
