A reaction has Keq' = 120. The rate constant of this reaction was found
to be 1.11x 101s-1.
If the catalytic power of an enzyme for this reaction is 1.25 x 10', what
is the rate constant, in s1, for the reverse direction of the catalyzed
reaction?

a protein was measured as 200. In a separate experiment, the rate constant
for the binding process, which is second order overall, was found to be

dissociation of the drug molecule from the protein- drug complex?
Suppose that, in the absence of a catalyst, a certain biochemical reaction occurs x times per second at normal body temperature 137 °C2. In order to be physiologically useful, the reaction needs to occur 5000 times faster than when it is uncatalyzed.

- The Michaelis-Menten equation is often used to describe the kinetic characteristics of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. Vmax [S] U = Km + [S] where v is the velocity, or rate, Vmax is the maximum velocity, Km is the Michaelis-Menten constant, and [S] is the substrate concentration. A graph of the Michaelis-Menten equation is a plot of a reaction's initial velocity (vo) at different substrate concentrations ([S]). First, move the line labeled Vmax to a position that represents the maximum velocity of the enzyme. 300 V Next, move the line labeled 1/2 Vmax to its correct position. max 275 Then, move the line labeled Km to its correct position. 250 225 200 175 Michaelis–Menten curve 150 K a 125 m 100 1/2 V 75 max 50 25 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 [S] (µM) Incorrect Estimate the values for Vmax and Km.
