The Agent for this reaction event tends to be Amino Acid, Other Compound, Enzyme, and Entity Property, although Functional Group and Cofactor can also be Agent.
The Theme for this reaction event tends to be Amino Acid, Other Compound, Functional Group and Entity Property, although Enzyme and Cofactor can also be Theme.
The Means are usually Entity Property, which indicates some parameters, such as pH and pKa.
