A complex, fully active enzyme, containing an apoenzyme and a coenzyme. Coenzymes can be metal ions(e. g. Na+, K+, Mg2+) or organic molecules such as coenzyme A, NAD, and pyridoxal phosphate. Some coenzymes are tightly bound to the enzymes as prosthetic groups(e. g. NAD and NADP) ;other groups can be removed easily, e. g. by dialysis. 2, record 1, English, - holoenzyme

Enzyme actif, constitué par un apoenzyme, qui est une protéine à poids moléculaire élevé, impliqué dans la reconnaissance du substrat et sa liaison à celui-ci, et un coenzyme, ion métallique ou vitamine, d'origine exogène. Il est responsable de la transformation du substrat. Chaque type de coenzyme lié fonctionnellement à un autre enzyme possède des caractères d'association qui sont constants, soit faibles (covalence), une dialyse suffit à les séparer, soit forts et le coenzyme ne peut être isolé que par dénaturation du complexe. 2, record 1, French, - holoenzyme

The rate of an enzyme reaction(V) varies with the substrate concentration, increasing with an increased concentration until a maximum value(Vmax) is reached. At this point, all enzyme molecules are fully occupied and the rate of reaction is limited by the rate of the catalytic process on the enzyme surface. For most enzymes, the concentration of substrate at which the reaction rate is half maximal(Km) is a measure of how tightly the substrates are bound, with a large value of Km representing a weak binding, and vice versa. 3, record 2, English, - concentration

Il existe des réactions d'ordre zéro, du premier ordre, du deuxième ordre et du troisième ordre, suivant la nature de la relation entre la vitesse de la réaction et la concentration d'un des réactifs dans des conditions données. La vitesse de certaines réactions chimiques est indépendante de la concentration des réactifs : on les appelle réactions d'ordre zéro. Beaucoup de réactions catalysées sont d'ordre zéro vis-à-vis des réactifs. Dans ces cas, la vitesse de réaction dépend de la concentration du catalyseur ou de divers facteurs autres que la concentration des composés chimiques qui entrent en réaction. Les réactions du premier ordre sont celles dont la vitesse est exactement proportionnelle à la concentration d'un réactif. Les réactions du deuxième ordre sont celles dont la vitesse est proportionnelle au produit des concentrations de deux réactifs différents, ou au carré de la concentration d'un seul réactif. Les réactions du troisième ordre, relativement rares, sont celles dont la vitesse est proportionnelle au produit de trois concentrations. 3, record 2, French, - concentration

Generally, the law has considered itself fully extended by affording compensation only to persons immediately injured, such as the accident victim himself, without going to the length of compensating also third persons who, in consequence, incur expenses or lose their livelihood, support or expected benefits from their association with him. The reason for this is not so much that these claims are for pecuniary detriment as that the burden of compensating anyone besides the actual casualty is feared to be unduly oppressive because most accidents are bound to entail repercussions, great or small; upon all with whom he had family, business or other valuable relations. 2, record 3, English, - pecuniary%20detriment

There are bound to be rainstorms whose water the soil cannot fully absorb-a point of major importance in arid and semi-arid areas, for this water can be collected and used to improve productivity locally. The following four water management methods and erosion control structures apply :. runoff harvesting(catching runoff for supplementary irrigation) ;. total absorption or infiltration;. runoff diversion(redirecting excess water) ;. runoff spreading(distribution of runoff energy).... Structures to dissipate runoff energy. When rainfall exceeds the soil' s absorption capacity, the sheet runoff can be controlled by spreading it across the whole slope rather than concentrating it in channels and outlets, where it can cause problems. Its energy can be dispersed by keeping the speed below 25 cm... Such dispersion across the slope is achieved partly by cropping techniques that keep the soil surface rough(clods, many grass stalks, effect of weeds and mulching, etc.) and partly by structures such as permeable microdams, which temporarily slow the flow, allow some sedimentation, spread the flood, reduce peak flows and improve absorption. 1, record 4, English, - runoff%20spreading

After hydrolysis of the template RNA, the cDNA is detected by a sandwich hybridization assay(Enzyme-Linked Oligonucleotide Sorbent Assay, or ELOSA). The sandwich consists of a biotinylated capture probe, the cDNA, and an HRP-conjugated detector probe. The sandwich is bound via the biotin to a streptavidin-coated microplate well, and is detected by adding a substrate for HRP. Although all steps may be performed manually, the ELOSA system is fully compatible with automated ELISA(Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay) plate washers and readers. 1, record 5, English, - capture%20probe
