## Abstract A protease from __Tetrahymena pyriformis__ inactivated eight of nine commercially available enzymes tested, including lactate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase (TPNβspecific), glucoseβ6 phosphate dehydrogenase, Dβamino acid oxidase, fumarase, pyruvate kinase, hexokinase, and citra
The in vitro adsorption of the alkaloid emetine, a primary constituent of ipecac, on activated charcoal was studied. The results support the supposition that syrup of ipecac should not be given to counteract poisonings if activated charcoal is also to be administered.
Single-enzyme systems can undergo weakly damped concentration oscillations if the enzyme can be converted to an inactive form which only slowly reverts to the active form. Inactivation can take many forms, including a simple (hysteretic) conformational change of the enzyme. This observation may prov
