Q7. Kinetics were analysed for an enzyme in the absence and presence of inhibitor. In the absence of inhibitor, the Km was 10 mM and the Vmax Was 20 mM/min. In the presence of inhibitor, the apparent Km was 2 mM and the apparent Vmax Was 4 mM/min. Which statement is correct? Alpha and alpha' are both > 1 O Alpha equals 5 The inhibitor is uncompetitive In the presence of inhibitor, at very high (S). Vo approaches Vmax
