catalysis by approximation
|
nucleoside monophosphate kinases (NMP kinases) catalyze transfer of phosphoryl group from NTP to NMP without catalyzing hydrolysis of NTP.
conformation of enzyme changes upon binding substrates, facilitating reaction and preventing water from hydrolyzing NTP. |
|
covalent catalysis
|
nucleophilic attack results in temporary covalent attachment between enzyme and substrate
|
|
acid/base catalysis
|
uses molecule (not water) that can accept or donate a proton
-histidine is common because side chain has pKa ~7 that can function as acid/base at physiological pH |
