Analysis of Enzyme Kinetic Data

Written by a renowned expert in the field, Analysis of Enzyme Kinetic Data offers a clear, practical introduction to the statistical analysis of kinetic data for enzyme-catalyzed reactions in the steady state. Topics include basic principles of a least squares analysis, fitting the Michaelis-Menton equation by a least squares analysis, the general linear model, residual plots, maximum likelihood and efficiency, generalized medians, and robust regression. The book also includes IBM compatible software for the Leonora program--an application specially designed for the analysis of enzyme kinetic data--along with detailed, user-friendly instructions for its use. Default options are included for the beginner. The only book to combine an introduction to the subject with a practical software application, Analysis of Enzyme Kinetic Data is ideal for students and professionals in all aspects of biochemistry.
