Textbook Question
Chapter 8, Problem 15P
The same enzyme as in Problem 14 is studied in the presence of a different inhibitor (inhibitor B). In this case, two different concentrations of inhibitor are used. Data are as follows:
a. What kind of inhibitor is inhibitor B?
b. Determine the apparent Vmax and KM at each inhibitor concentration.
c. Estimate KI from these data.
14. The steady-state kinetics of an enzyme are studied the absence and presence of an inhibitor (Inhibitor A). The initial rate is given as a function of substrate concentration in the following table:
a. What kind of inhibition (competitive, uncompetitive. or mixed) is involved?
b. Determine Vmax and KM the absence and presence of inhibitor.
