High pressure effects on protein structure and function |

| Authors: | Vadim V Mozhaev Karel Heremans Johannes Frank Patrick Masson Claude Balny |
| Abstract: | Many biochemists would regard pressure as a physical parameter mainly of theoretical interest and of rather limited value in experimental biochemistry. The goal of this overview is to show that pressure is a powerful tool for the study of proteins and modulation of enzymatic activity. |
