I would like to know some probabilities in working with the enzymes in the membranous sources such as liposomes. I am working with a bacterial enzyme which is inactive in its monomeric state. It is activated forming a dimer under the presence of the substrate which upon they react. To be brief, the enzyme remains monomeric state and forms a dimer in the presence of the substrate. So we are planning to study the enzymatic activity in the immobilized form using the liposomes i.e., by incorporating the enzymes to the membrane. Has anybody have come across any research articles dealing with the same concept of studying such transition of monomer to dimer at the immobilized form?
I suggest you contact Sin Urban or Michael Wolfe who deal with inter membrane proteins and catalysis and tell him I suggested you contact them.
Sorry, my spellchecker screwed up my response. They study intra membrane proteinases.
Thank you Marcia. I am glad and would look forward to contact them.
