Question
A marine microorganism contains an enzyme that hydrolyzes glucose-6-sulfate. The activity test is based on the measurement of the rate of glucose formation. The enzyme in a cell-free extract has a KM of 6.7 x 10-9 M and a Vmax of 300 nM min-1 . Galactose-6-sulfate is a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme. To a concentration of glucose-6-sulfate 2 x 10-5 M and galactose-6-sulfate 10-5 M, the speed initial is 1.5 nM min-1 . Calculate the Ki for galactose-6-sulfate.

- An experiment was carried out to measure the reaction rate of hydrolysis of acetylcholme (substrate) with serum enzymes (Eadie, 1949). In the experiment, two experiments were conducted, namely experiment 1 without using a prostigmine inhibitor and experiment 2 using a prostigmine inhibitor at 1.5 x 10^-7 mol/l. the data obtained are: a. Is prostigmine competitive or noncompetitive inhibitor? b. determine the value of km and rmax for the two experiments, comparearrow_forwardwhat concentration of a competitive inhibitor is required to yield 60% inhibition of an enzyme at a substance concentration of 1.0x10^-4 M.
