Comparison of Emzymatic and Nonenzymatic Rate Constants
The for alkaline phosphatase—catalyzed hydrolysis of melhylphoiphate is approximately 14/sec at pH 8 and 25ºC. The rate constant for the uncatalyzed hydrolysis of methyl phosphate under the same conditions is approximately I0-15/sec. What is the difference in the free energies of activation of these two reactions?
