Concept introduction:
The Michaelis-Menten equation relates the concentration of substrate with the velocity of the reaction. A constant which expresses the substrate’s concentration if the velocity of reaction equals to the half of the maximum velocity of the reaction is known as Michaelis-Menten constant. It is denoted by

Concept introduction:
A molecule that disturbs or inhibits the activity of an enzyme is known as enzyme inhibitor. The enzyme inhibition stops the generation of enzyme-substrate complex which, in turn, inhibits the formation of the product. The three main types of inhibition are competitive inhibition, uncompetitive inhibition and noncompetitive inhibition.

- Each plot has its own limitations. Match the plot with the correct statement on limitations. 1.Hanes-Woolf 2.Michaelis Menten 3.Lineweaver-Burk limitations: A. This plot appears to allow for more accurate calculation of these parameters, but is prone to error, as the y-axis takes the reciprocal of the rate of reaction –this increases any small errors in measurement at low substrate concentration, where they are most likely to occur. B.The advantage of this plot is that it does not not overemphasizing the data obtained at low [S]. The disadvantage is that any inaccurate measures of substrate concentration will be exaggerated as [S] is used on both axes. C.It is difficult to obtain a meaningful value of Km from this plot because of the high substrate concentrations needed to reach Vmax. Vmax has to be estimated by extrapolation- which is partly subjective and introduces error. D.The advantage of this plot is that it overcomes uneven spacing of points, and undue weight of a…arrow_forwarda. Calculate both Vmax and KM for the control using Lineweaver-Burk curve. b.
