Their three-dimensional structures are highly complex, yet they are formed by spontaneous folding of a linear polypeptide chain. Their catalytic properties are even more impressive than synthetic catalysts which operate under more extreme conditions. Enzyme-catalysed reactions proceed very high enantioselectivity and enantiospecificity at rates which approach “catalytic perfection.” Living cells carry out a huge repertoire of enzyme-catalysed chemical reactions, some of which have little or no precedent in organic chemistry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe popular textbook \u003ci\u003eIntroduction to Enzyme and Coenzyme Chemistry\u003c\/i\u003e has been thoroughly updated with information on the most recent advances in our understanding of enzyme action.
