Question
In the relationship between the substrate concentration and the rate of an enzyme catalyzed reaction, themaximal rate of the reaction (Vmax) is limited primarily by
A) exhaustion of the substrate supply.
B) saturation of the enzyme with substrate.
C) inhibition of the enyzme by the reaction products.
D) denaturation of the enzyme at higher substrate concentrations.
E) balance between the increase in reaction rate with increasing substrate concentrations and accelerated
destruction of the enzyme at higher substrate concentrations.
Explanation / Answer
E) balance between the increase in reaction rate with increasing substrate concentrations and accelerated destruction of the enzyme at higher substrate concentrations.
