This term certainly exists. But I have a feeling that the definition given doesn't make any sense. Anyone have a clue? SemperBlotto (talk) 06:13, 12 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

I think it is used for the energy required to deactivate (sense 2) enzymes and other proteins, also called “denaturation (sense 2) energy“.  --Lambiam 11:17, 12 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

I think the request was really concerning the meaning of the term, which I cannot make out from the citations.  --Lambiam 08:23, 13 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
