Question
3.3. The enzyme, fumarase, has the following kinetic constants:
S+EES P+E
where k₁= 10 M¹ s
k₁=4.4 x 10¹ s¹
k₂= 10¹ s¹
a. What is the value of the Michaelis constant for this enzyme?
b. At an enzyme concentration of 10 M. what will be the initial rate of product formation at
a substrate concentration of 103 M?
