摘要: Publisher Summary This chapter discusses certain features of a few well-documented examples multienzyme complexes. The complexes that have been most thoroughly described are composed two to six functionally related enzymes and molecular weights ranging from hundred thousand million. particles contain definite amounts each enzyme, the component proteins organized in specific regular way. Multienzyme observed participate reactions involving number very different substrates, they found variety biological systems. It seems likely this mode subcellular organization is fairly common, it certainly not restricted narrow range organisms. Statements regarding role cellular economy can be no more than speculative at present. clear, however, construction complex provides opportunities, least, for increased specificity efficiency modes control would made available by simply confining structurally independent within same compartment cell.
