Abstract (English)

Enzymes are highly specialized and efficient biocatalysts, absolutely essential for all cellular life on earth. Like species as a whole, enzymes are subject to gradual changes, based on spontaneous mutations in their respective genes, which can bring about new structural and functional features in the resulting novel enzyme. Where these features are beneficial to the organism’s survival, they ...

Translation of the abstract (German)

Enzyme sind hochspezifische und effiziente Biokatalysatoren, die für jede Form von Leben auf der Erde unerlässlich sind. Ähnlich den Individuen einer Spezies, verändern sich auch Enzyme im Laufe der Evolution. Spontane Mutationen in einem entsprechenden Gen können die strukturellen und funktionellen Eigenschaften eines Enzyms verändern. Sind diese Änderungen für den Organismus vorteilhaft, stellt ...
