How is the enzyme affected during the catalyzed reaction?
The higher the substrate concentration, the higher the rate of reaction, up till the point when the limiting factor is no longer the concentration of substrate but other factors like enzyme concentration of temperature.
What is the relationship between substrate concentration and enzyme activity?
At low substrate concentrations, the rate of enzyme activity is proportional to substrate concentration. The rate eventually reaches a maximum at high substrate concentrations as the active sites become saturated.
When the enzyme is at its most active state an increase in the concentration of substrate will?
An enzymatic reaction is an equilibrium reaction and the determiners of rate include enzyme and substrate concentration. An increase in either enzyme or substrate concentration will increase the rate of the reaction until one or the other component becomes saturated, beyond its ability to react or be reacted at a higher rate.
Why was there no increase in the reaction rate with 8.0 g. of substrate as compared to 4.0 g. of substrate What would you need to add to see an increase in the reaction rate with 8.0 g. of substrate?
because the amount of the other variables are the same, no change. once 4.0 g of lactose substrate or whatever it is is at it's maximum reaction rate, it can do no one reaction therefore there was no reaction in the 8.0 g of substrate. Because the reaction volume was also doubled; so there was no change in concentration of substrate.
Is there any Procedure in enzyme and factors that affect enzyme activity?
pH, temperature, substrate concentration and enzyme concentration influences the rate of reaction
What happens to the rate of enzyme concentration when you increase substrate concentration?
The rate of enzyme reaction is increased when the substrate concentration is also increased. However, when it reaches the maximum velocity of reaction, the reaction rate remains constant.
How is the enzyme affected during the catalyzed reaction?
The higher the substrate concentration, the higher the rate of reaction, up till the point when the limiting factor is no longer the concentration of substrate but other factors like enzyme concentration of temperature.
What is the simple definition of saturation kinetics in biochemistry?
Saturation Kinetics- an enzyme reaction in which there is enough enzymes to constantly have a substrate bound them and therefore the reaction is occurring at Vmax. This velocity is only limited by the concentration of substrates, not the enzyme.
What happens when increasing the substrate concentration when there is less substrate than enzyme?
Dunno. But this is pretty cool. But if i search the question, i obvioudly don't know it, so why would i be given an optionto answer it?
Describe the relationship between substrate concentration and the initial reaction rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction Is this a linear relationship What happens to the initial reaction rate as sub?
As the substrate concentration increases so does the reaction rate because there is more substrate for the enzyme react with.
What is the relationship between substrate concentration and enzyme activity?
At low substrate concentrations, the rate of enzyme activity is proportional to substrate concentration. The rate eventually reaches a maximum at high substrate concentrations as the active sites become saturated.
How do enzymes affect reactions?
The initial velocity of a gradually increases during enzyme substrate reaction. The concentration of the substrate also increases with it.
When the enzyme is at its most active state an increase in the concentration of substrate will?
An enzymatic reaction is an equilibrium reaction and the determiners of rate include enzyme and substrate concentration. An increase in either enzyme or substrate concentration will increase the rate of the reaction until one or the other component becomes saturated, beyond its ability to react or be reacted at a higher rate.
Is Vmax a threshold of substrate concentration for initiation of an enzymatic reaction?
Oddly phased question in my opinion. Vmax is only effected by the amount of enzyme present in the reaction. Substrate concentration has zero effect on Vmax. There for I believe the answer in no. {Enzyme concentration is responsible for this}
Why does increase enzymes concentration promote enzyme activity?
Increasing enzyme concentration increases the number of collisions between the enzyme molecules and the substrate molecules. This increases the number of successful collisions and the number of enzyme-substrate complexes. Therefore the reaction rate is increased as well and enzyme activity is promoted.
Factors effecting catalase rate of reaction?
Temperature, pH, Substrate concentration, Enzyme concentration, Inhibitor concentration (ex. ammonia)
What are the characteristics of an enzymatic reaction?
pH Temperature Ionic Strength Aw Substrate Concentration Substrate location.
