55. 28group finds that there is no significant tunneling enhancement in the triosephosphate isomerase system when gas, solution, or enzyme systems are simulated. This is one reason an experimental test such as the present work was needed and, hence, undertaken.

57. 5960Convincing experimental support for the validity of comparing these H· abstractions is found in the fact that all three enzyme-free systems studied, NpCbl, AdoCbl, and 8-MeOCbl, give results identical within experimental error to the AdoCbl-dependent methylmalonyl-CoA mutase system; that is, the results themselves strongly support, ex post facto, the comparison of the slightly different enzyme-based and enzyme-free solution systems.

84. The H· (or D·) abstraction from the C-H and not the O-H(D) is as expected from Ingold and co-worker's literature: they demonstrated that the abstraction reaction of hydrogen from MeOH and MeOD by methyl radical proceeds at the same rate at 77 K, that is, that C-H abstraction is occurring.

96. Knapp, M. J.; Rickert, K. W.; Klinman, J. P. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 3865. Siebrand and Smedarchina show that there is no statistically valid difference in the data in this paper for mutant vs wild-type enzyme (due to the too narrow temperature range over which the data could be obtained), thereby negating the claimed support in this paper for the putative protein-squeezing mechanism.
