Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The factor by which the alteration in the concentration’s ratio of the enzyme molecules present in the R and T states is done with the help of the binding of single substrate molecule per enzyme molecule is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Enzymes being the catalysts increase the rate of reaction. In an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, the rate of reaction for the product formation depends on the concentration of enzyme, as well as the substrate involved in the reaction via formation of an enzyme substrate complex. The enzyme which is able to do the conformational changes if an effector gets attached to it is known as allosteric enzyme.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The ratio of the molecules of enzyme which are present in the R state with the enzyme molecules present in the T state containing the saturating amounts of the substrate is to be stated.

not true about the Michaelis-Menten equation? The equation that gives the rate, v, of an the substrate concentration [S] is the Michaelis-Menten equation = Vmax[S]/(Km + [S]), where V, enzyme-catalyzed reaction for all values of max and Km are constants. Which of the following is a) for [S] << Km, V = Vmax applies to most enzymes, but allosteric enzymes have different kinetics when [S] = Km, then v = Vmax/2 gives the rate when the enzyme concentration, temperature, pH, and ionic strength are constant for very high values of [S], v approaches Vmax e) Which is correct about the constant Km in the Michaelis-Menten equation? also called the catalytic constant or turnover number equal to the number of product molecules produced per unit time when the enzyme is saturated with substrate it is the constant in the first order rate equation v = k[A] it is the constant in the second order rate equation v = equal to the substrate concentration at which the velocity or rate of a reaction is ½ the…
