Primary source [6] abstract: "Kinetic studies have been carried out of the monomer-dimer interaction of insulin, beta-lactoglobulin, and alpha-chymotrypsin using stopped-flow and temperature-jump techniques. The pH indicators bromothymol blue, bromophenol blue, and phenol red were used to monitor pH changes associated with the monomer-dimer interaction." Primary source studied porcine

p.3338 left column bottom paragraph: "Faster bimolecular rates have been reported (primary source) for insulin dimerization (k2 = 10^8 M^-1×s^-1) and for interaction of cytochrome c with cytochrome c peroxidase (ref 7) and cytochrome b5 (ref 8) (k2 varies from 10^7 to 10^9, with the faster rates at low ionic strength). These very fast reactions are the results of strong attractive coulombic forces that highly favor formation of the productive reaction complexes (refs 8-11)." |
