A Theory of Enzyme Chemotaxis: Comparison Between Experiment and Model
Farzad Mohajerani, Xi Zhao, Ambika Somasundar +2
Enzymes show two distinct transport behaviors in the presence of their substrates in solution. First, their diffusivity enhances with increasing substrate concentration. In additio…

Exothermicity is not a necessary condition for enhanced diffusion of enzymes
Pierre Illien, Xi Zhao, Krishna K. Dey +3
Recent experiments have revealed that the diffusivity of exothermic and fast enzymes is enhanced when they are catalytically active, and different physical mechanisms have been exp…
