Partial Rapid Equilibrium Ordered examples

For example, in the Steady-State Ordered Bi Bi system, if the first ligand to add in either direction is in equilibrium with free enzyme and the respective complexes, but FAB and EPQ are not in equilibrium with EA and EQ, we shah obtain a Partial Rapid Equihbrium Ordered Bi Bi system The rate equation for this system was derived with the aid of the Cha method in Chapter 4 (Eq. (4.58)) ... 

At temperatures below the main transition, a basic equilibrium stracture is the subgel (crystalline) Lc phase. Its formation usually requires prolonged low-temperature incubation. In addition to the Lc phase, many intermediate stable, metastable, and transient lamellar gel structures are adopted by different lipid classes—with perpendicular or tilted chains with respect to the bilayer plane, with fully interdigitated, partially interdigitated, or noninterdigitated chains, rippled bilayers with various ripple periods, and so forth. (Fig. 1). Several polymorphic phase transitions between these structures have been reported. Well-known examples of polymorphic transitions are the subtransition (Lc- L ) and the pretransition (Lp/- Fp/) in phosphatidylcholines (33). Recently, a polymorphic transition that included rapid, reversible transformation of the usual gel phase into a metastable, more ordered gel phase with orthorhombic hydrocarbon chain-packing (so-called Y-transition) was reported to represent a common pathway of the bilayer transformation into a subgel (crystalline) Lc phase (62).
