Most of the errors in the first printing of "The Organic Chemistry
of Enzyme-Catalyzed Reactions"; Academic Press: San Diego were
corrected in the 2nd printing, which was called "Revised Edition".
It is not an updated edition, it is just a corrected edition. In
a perfect world all of the errors would have been corrected in the
revised edition, but I used this version in my course last year,
and the class and I found a new list of errors not corrected in
the revised edition (fortunately, not too serious). These are listed
below. If you find other mistakes, please email me at Agman@chem.northwestern.edu.
p.45 line: 17 14C
should be the methyl carbon, not the carboxylate carbon
p.56 Scheme 2.14: the arrows between the 1st and 2nd structures
should be a resonance arrow not equilibrium arrows
p.62 line 13: alcohol should be ester
p.68 line 16: diazoketone should be diazo ketone
p.70 Scheme 2.27: OPP should be OP2O63-;
PPi should be P2O74-;
and PO should be =O3PO
p.73 Scheme 2.31: OAMP and OPPi esters should be AMP and PPi esters
p.73 Scheme 2.33: PO should be =O3PO
p.74 Scheme 2.34: legend: a-
should be g-;
in the scheme PO should be =O3PO
p.75 Scheme 2.35: legend: partial reaction should be partial exchange
reaction
p.77 Scheme 2.37: citrulline (2.54) and all intermediates
from it should have 3 methylene groups
p.80 Scheme 2.38: In the transition state structure there should
be a solid and dashed line for the vertical P-O bond
p.103 Scheme 3.13: the arrow should be reversible
p.115 Scheme 3.26: PO should be =O3PO
p.140 Scheme 3.61: the H+
to the right of arrow should be -H+
p.160 Scheme 3.84: -H2O
should be over arrow leading to 3.143
p.190 Scheme 4.21: legend: dihydobiopterin should be dihydrobiopterin
p.199 line 9: CPY2B4 should be CYP2B4
p.199 Scheme 4.29: legend: CYP2B4
p.200 line 3: CYP2B4
p.202 line 8: CYP2B1
p.206 2nd line from bottom: CYP2B1
p.257 Scheme 6.7: PO should be =O3PO
p.270 Scheme 6.25: H2O
should be HO-
p.273 lines 7/8 from bottom: delete (depicted by + + in Scheme
6.28)
p.273 Scheme 6.29: PO should be =O3PO
p.291 8th line from bottom: Section II.C.2.b should be Section
II.A.2.b
p.300 Scheme 7.15: in structure 7.19 a methyl group is
missing at C-2
p.304 Scheme 7.20: all arrows should be reversible
p.312 Figure 7.6 mechanism B: there is a phosphorylated carboxyl
intermediate missing before 7.37
p.313 Figure 7.7 Mechanism A: there should be a -H+
with loss of ADP
p.335 11th line from bottom: the parenthesis should not be boldface
p.373 Scheme 9.11: The order of epimerization is backwards; the
C-3 carbon should be epimerized first, then the C-5 carbon.
p.383 Scheme 9.29: There should be H on the line at C6 of the
first structure
p.388 3rd line from bottom: should be oxaloacetate
p.393 5th line from bottom: Section II.D.3 should be Section III.C
p.406 Scheme 10.8: structure 10.13 should have an O in
the ring to the right of the double bond
p.410 Scheme 10.12: second reaction should read
1) malate synthase/glyoxylate
2) hydrolysis
p.424 3rd line from bottom: pyruvyl should be pyruvoyl
p.428 line 8: 3.26 should be 3.29
p.440 Scheme 10.45: in structure 10.73 the pyridine nitrogen
should have a + charge
p.457 Figure 11.1 legend: (FDR) should be (FDP)
p.497 last line: Section VI.A.4 should be Section VI.A.2
p.561 reference 163: Kilgore, J. L.; Alberhart, D. J.
p.565 line 3: substate should be substrate
p.620 P11-1: the OP should be OPO3=
in the product
p.652 S5-3: above the arrow that says "as above" the
FeIV=O
should be replaced by succinate + CO2
p.670 S9-3b: the structure on the right side of the second row
has a curved arrow missing from double bond to iminium carbon
p.674 S10-2c: second line should read Because loss of the C-4
hydroxyl group is faster than...
p.685 S11-6: in going from the 2nd to the 3rd structure, the phenol
ring is tautomerized to a dihydrocyclohexadienone ring (deprotonation/reprotonation)
