Increase of enzyme activity through specific covalent modification with fragments

Modulation of enzyme activity is a powerful means of probing cellular function and can be exploited for diverse applications. Here, we explore a method of enzyme activation where covalent tethering of a small molecule to an enzyme can increase catalytic activity (k (cat)/K (M)) up to 35-fold. Using...
