Structurally-bound enzymes

  • Conference paper

Abstract

It is likely that, within the intact cell, the freedom of movement of all enzymes is restricted. To that extent they could all be considered structurally-bound. However, from the purely experimental point of view, it is a striking fact that when a cell is ruptured, a number of enzymes go into solution, while others remain firmly bound to more or less large particles, which can be sedimented in ordinary centrifuges. It is these enzymes which we think of when we refer to structurally-bound enzymes.
