@GaryE The key is to lower the activation energy. This is achieved by catalysts. Temperature is one type of catalysts (a good one in chemistry or industry), but biologically is useless (as you correctly highlighted and yes, I have read the book- it's a great book :))... Does this make sense?
-
Glad this is sorted.
-
Yes, great point.
-
This is very interesting and thank you for posting. Enzymes can be regulated and that's really key to how things function.

That's a good technique. We know this (metabolism/glycolysis) is a complicated process, but it's very important.

Yes, good idea not to try this then.
