The Michaelis-Menten equation is an expression of the relationship between the initial velocity,V0, of an enzymatic reaction and substrate concentration, [S]. There are three conditions that are useful for simplifying the Michaelis-Menten equation to an expression from which the effect of [S] on the rate can be more readily determined. Match the condition (e.g. [S] = Km) with the statement(s) that describe it: 1. Doubling [S] will almost double the rate. 2. Half of the active sites are occupied by...

Enzyme E, which follows Michaelis- Menten kinetics, catalyzes the same reaction upon three different substates that are strucurally related (S1,S2, and S3) When the kinetic data for the three reactions are determined under the same reaction conditions, the data indicated below is otabined. The Km (Km1) for E and S1 is 1uM, that for E and S2 (Km2) is 80nM, and that for E and S3 (Km3) is 20nM. The Vmax for E and S1 is 115uMol/min (vmax1), Vmax2 is...

Group of answer choices the rate steadily decreases over the course of the reaction Vmax depends on the concentration of the enzyme in the presence of an inhibitor the v vs. [S] plot is a hyperbola the equilibrium constant is lower as compared to the uncatalyzed reaction KM is determined by finding the [S] at which v = Vmax/2

Michaelis-Menten kinetics define the way in which enzymes behave at various substrate concentrations. Unlike the linear reaction rates discussed in organic chemistry, enzymes can only turn over substrate at a rate that is equal to or less than the amount of time it takes to bind to the enzyme, therefore, at high enough substrate concentrations, there will be no effect on the reaction rate. This is termed reaching Vmax, or the maximum velocity the enzyme can turn over product. From...

Enzyme Kinetics Please explain reasoning for answers. How does the [S] affect the rate of an enzymatic reaction? Why don’t enzyme catalyzed rates increase linearly with [S]? How will Km (Michaelis Constant) it affect the rate of an enzymatic reaction? What will it change on the hyperbolic curve? Why is the kcat/Km ratio a superior way to compare one enzyme to another as compared to either of the two constants alone? What happens to the Michaelis-Menten equation when [S] <<...
