pH optimum of enzymes and physiological pH

[Stephane Vuilleumier]

Hi all,

can somebody point me to a good (recent?) discussion of the relevance
of enzyme pH optimum to cell physiological pH (perhaps especially
in bacteria?)

what is the current consensus on the topic (if there is one)?


Thanks,

Stephane
