Based on Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetics, the initial rate of reaction, vi, is dependent on maximum rate Vmax, substrate concentration [S], and the enzyme's Michaelis constant Km, which represents the the tendency of the substrate/enzyme complex to dissociate. The dependence on enzyme concentration is factored into the maximum rate. The equation to describe this is: vi = Vmax([S]/(Km+[S])) Follow the link below for details.

In an enzyme catalyzed reaction what is the reactant called?

Generally in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, the reactant is called the substrate, which in association with the enzyme forms the product.

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.


What will be the product when reaction between water and carbon will occur?

Carbonic acid. The reaction is: H2O + CO2 -----> H2CO3 ----> H+ + HCO3- The reaction is catalysed by an enzyme called carbonic anhydrase. After it has formed it separates (dissociates) into hydrogen ions (H+) and hydrogen carbonate ions (HCO3-).


How you can demonstrate that INT reduction is due to an enzyme catalysed process?

By heating the homogenate. proteins are innactivated by heat and enzyme activity is lost


Why above a certain temperature enzyme-catalysed reactions actually go more slowly if the temperature is raised?

What enzymatic reaction can be catalysed by enzymes which are not proteins?

An Enzyme must always be a protein. Any Enzyme is always categorized as the amine in the amino acid sequences that comprise it, and anything made of amino acids is automatically categorized as a protein. Therefore, not all proteins are enzymes, but all enzymes are proteins.
