Abstract

Preferential binding and stabilization of the transition state arising from attack of water on antibody-complexed substrate 1 should result in a decrease of the free energy of activation for the reaction. Several factors were considered in the experimental design:(1) phosphonates have been reported to act as transition-state inhibitors for proteolytic enzyme $(2) considerable mechanistic information is available on the nonenzymatic hydrolysis of ...
