Conventions for Depicting Reaction Mechanisms Curved arrow indicates electron rearrangement during a reaction
Covalent Catalysis A formal positive charge favors electron flow to the nitrogen group
Components that Facilitate Enzyme Catalysis What is the cofactor in ATP hydrolysis? What is the co-substrate in an oxidation-reduction reaction?
Mechanisms of Enzyme Catalysis • Acid-Base Catalysis • Covalent Catalysis • Metal Ion Catalysis • Orientation/Proximity Effects • Preferential Transition- State Binding
