- An enzyme catalyzes a reaction in which substrateA is cleaved into two products, P and Q. In the catalytic mechanism, the enzyme converts A to a covalently-bound reaction intermediate X and product P, P then desorbs from the enzyme, and in a second chemical step, the enzyme converts the intermediate X in the EX complex to the final product Q (in EQ), which then desorbs from the enzyme E.You discover two inhibitors of this enzyme, I and J. I is a competitive inhibitor of the substrate A, and has nearly double the molecular weight of J. On the other hand, J is a mixed inhibitor of enzyme E, and its inhibitory effect on Km/ Vmax (the slope effect from the double reciprocal plot) is greater than that of 1 / Vmax (the intercept effect in a double reciprocal plot). That is Kis< Kii . At low pH, the conversion of EX to EQ is greatly slowed, kcat is decreased, and the intercept effect of inhibitor J is elevated, that is, the value of Kiiis diminished.

Linear the equation you have derived as a Lineweaver-Burk type equation.arrow_forward.When saturated with substrate, an enzyme has a maximum initial rate of 110 umoles of substrate converted to product per second. At a substrate concentration of 100 µM, the same enzyme converts substrate to product at a rate of 0.010 mmoles/sec. Assuming that Michaelis- Menten kinetics are followed, calculate the reaction rate when substrate concentration is 2 x 10 M.arrow_forward
