The kinetics of interaction of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate (SDS) with catalase has been studied by absorbance and fluorescence changes. The results have been compared with circular dichroism spectra and activity measurements. The tertiary structure of catalase is modified by SDS in the monomeric and m...
