This book focuses on the interaction of enzymes and phenolic compounds, oxidation-reduction systems in plants and microorganisms, and phenolase complex. Other topics discussed include purification of phenol oxidases; enzyme-substrate specificity in potato polyphenol oxidase; tocopherols; and role of ubiquinone and plastoquinone in plant metabolism. Hydrolytic enzymes; enzyme inhibition by phenolic compounds; tannin inhibition of plant mitochondria; and aromatic acid-reducing systems in fungi are also deliberated in this selection. This publication is beneficial to students and biochemists researching on enzyme and phenolic compounds.
