Biopolymerization

Most biological catalysts are enzymes, i.e., proteins, which are macromolecules (polypeptides) fonned by biopolymerization of amino acids (with elimination of water) some enzymes are huge, with hundreds of monomer units. The 20 amino acid monomers occurring in nature.

Since detailed discussions of solutions obtained to date and of procedures for obtaining them have been published previously,4,5 and since this article (like others in this volume) is based on the subject matter of a single oral presentation, only a brief review of treatments of the indicated stochastic models for these biopolymerizations will be given in the following discussion. 

The possibility that this transition might conceivably be involved in a mechanism controlling biopolymerization seems remote in view of the best estimates that one can make for AG°, the standard free energy change... 

In this respect, these template directed biopolymerizations differ from vinyl polymerizations with which they have in common the property of progressing via the accretion of monomers only.

The effect of salts on the biopolymers is clearly shown by the results of v. Hippel and Wong218 (Fig. 32). Salts with possibility of giving salt-in effects reduce Tm of ribonuclease. Salt-out effects giving ions like sulfate increase 7, they reduce the interactions of biopolymere bulk water. Using models, there are opinions that proteins are preferentially hydrated in the presence of SO4 , less with Cl- > Br- > CNS- > J-218. If this is true, weaker interaction with the bulk water should strengthen the stability of fixed hydrates on the polymers.

Raman spectra, Eq. (30), and the phonon spectra. As indicated in the above, the formal theory does not provide a complete guide to either of these quantities. In fact, it is not known whether the vibrational modes oj in the model involve portions of the biological membrane or (portions of) biopolymeric systems. Qualitatively,...
