Iodoacetate inactivates rape alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH, EC 1.1.1.1). The inactivation rate follows the kinetics of the first order, is pH-dependent, and decreases below pH 7.5. Besides irreversible alkylation of the sulfhydryl groups of the enzyme iodoacetate also forms a reversible complex with rape ADH. The coenzyme (NAD) and its analogs (ATP, ADP, AMP) competitively protect the enzyme against alkylation; o-phenanthroline also protects the enzyme against alkylation yet noncompetitively with respect to iodoacetate. Imidazole and o-phenanthroline compete with one another for binding to the protein molecule of rape ADH. Whereas o-phenanthroline decreases the inactivation rate imidazole increases the rate of iodoacetate inactivation.

Studying the folding kinetics of an RNA can provide insight into its function and is thus a valuable method for RNA analyses. Computational approaches to the simulation of folding kinetics suffer from the exponentially large folding space that needs to be evaluated. Here, we present a new approach that combines structure abstraction with evolutionary conservation to restrict the analysis to common parts of folding spaces of related RNAs. The resulting algorithm can recapitulate the folding kinetics known for single RNAs and is able to analyse even long RNAs in reasonable time. Our program RNAliHiKinetics is the first algorithm for the simulation of consensus folding kinetics and addresses a long-standing problem in a new and unique way.
