Question
The correct answer is NOT letter a. Please give an explanation if you can which of the following is not correct concerning Michaelis Menten kinetics for enzyme catalyzed reactions? a The Vmax obtained from experimental data depends upon the amount of enzyme used in the assays. KM is equal to one-half of Vmax The maximum velocity(Vma) ocurs when all of the enzyme is saturated with substrate. The kinetic plot of velocity vs. [S] is hyperbolic shaped. A useful approximation is "The smaller the KM., the better the E to S binding."Explanation / Answer
Ans- (B) because km is not equal to the half Vmax , instead it is the substrate concentration at which the half of the max velocity is achieved.
