Advances in Enzymology and Related Areas of Molecular Biology, Volume 72, Part A

This book is Part A in a subseries entitled "Amino Acid Metabolism". Topics in Part A should be of immediate interest to those who are broadly concerned with amino acid assimilation and metabolism. Investigators interested in enzyme mechanism and regulation will also find this volume especially valuable. Activated Glutamate Intermediate in the Enzymatic Synthesis ofGlutamine (P. Krishnaswamy, et al.).
