Question

For the following aspartase reaction in the presence of the inhibitor hydroxymethylaspartate, determine Km and whether the inhibition is competitive or noncompetitive. You have to plot the
graph on the graph paper and also by using excel.
[S]                          V, No Inhibitor                     V, Inhibitor Present
(molarity)            (arbitrary units)                     (same arbitrary units)

1 x 10-4                           0.026                                         0.010
5 x 10-4                           0.092                                        0.040
1.5 x 10-3                         0.136                                        0.086
