Chapter 9, Problem 9.14P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

In the Eadie-Hofstee plot, the inhibition mechanism of line A is to be identified and represented in the plot.

Concept Introduction:

The graph that is obtained by plotting the substrate reaction rate (rs) on Y-axis and the ratio of the substrate reaction rate to the substrate concentration (rsS) on X-axis is termed as an Eadie-Hofstee plot. The equation that represents the Eadie-Hofstee plot is

shown below.

  rs=VmaxKM(rsS)

In this plot, the slope is represented by KM and the intercept is Vmax.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

In the Eadie-Hofstee plot, the inhibition mechanism of line B is to be identified and represented in the plot.

Concept Introduction:

  rs=VmaxKM(rsS)

In this plot, the slope is represented by KM and the intercept is Vmax.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

In the Eadie-Hofstee plot, the inhibition mechanism of line C is to be identified and represented in the plot.

Concept Introduction:

The graph that is obtained by plotting the substrate reaction rate (rs) on Y-axis and the ratio of the substrate reaction rate to the substrate concentration (rsS) on X-axis is termed as an Eadie-Hofstee plot. The equation that represents the Eadie-Hofstee plot is shown below.

  rs=VmaxKM(rsS)
