Results from our forumRe: Enzymes and activation energy.... topology of the active site. Areas of higher or lower electron density relative to the nuclear charge in that region lead to binding or repulsion of substrate molecule(s) and make groups more or less reactive. Changing local electron density directly affects reaction mechanisms, which ...

Re: Any SOLID arguments against evolution?... could be arranged as many times as there are atoms in the universe? 90% of arrangements would not work because of electrostatic attraction and repulsion so your left with say 10% of the arrangements and all the time in the world... Also on googling "the hemoglobin number" the only ...

The Fiber Disease... Allen P Minton, NIDDK, National Institute of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892-0830, minton@helix.nih.gov Abstract Volume exclusion arising from steric repulsion provides an important driving force for macromolecular compaction and association in highly volume-occupied or 'crowded' solutions. The presence ...

The Fiber Disease... Pfeffer, who thought that bacteria could steer toward or away from a chemical source, coined the term “chemotaxis” to describe their attraction or repulsion. The role that flagella play in that response was examined in detail after dark-field condensers of high numerical aperture were developed, ...
