3.
Rennin is an enzyme that follows the following reaction mechanism:
S+E <==1==> ES ==2==> P + E
The first reaction has kinetic constants k₁ and k₁, while k₂ is the rate constant for the second reaction.
A. Look up rennin and classify it as one of the 6 types of enzymes discussed in class.
B. Give an example of a substrate used with rennin, and what product/type of product results in industry.
C. Given values for the kinetic constants:
k₁ = 1.75 * 10 L/mol-s
k.₁ = 2.66 * 104 s.¹
K₂ = 9.53 * 10³ S-¹
What is the Michaelis Constant for this enzyme if you use the Rapid Equilibrium, RE, Assumption?
What is the Michaelis Constant for this enzyme if you use the Quasi Steady State Assumption, QSSA?
(Note: we found the relationship between the kinetic constants and Km and Vmax in class for this mechanism using both
approaches}
D. Using the values in (C), for a rennin concentration of 1.27* 105 M, and the Michaelis-Menten equation with
Km values from part C, determine the initial reaction velocities (for both RE and QSSA) when the
substrate is at a concentration of 4.88 x 10-³ M?
(Note: both RE and QSSA will predict the same maximum reaction velocity, Vmax, for THIS mechanism}
