Curve of the Michaelis–Menten equation labelled in accordance with IUBMB recommendations. In biochemistry, Michaelis–Menten kinetics, named after Leonor Michaelis and Maud Menten, is the simplest case of enzyme kinetics, applied to enzyme-catalysed reactions of one substrate and one product.
Eadie–Hofstee plot of v against v/a for Michaelis–Menten kinetics. In biochemistry, an Eadie–Hofstee plot (or Eadie–Hofstee diagram) is a graphical representation of the Michaelis–Menten equation in enzyme kinetics. It has been known by various different names, including Eadie plot, Hofstee plot and Augustinsson plot.
The enzyme involved in this reaction is called invertase, and it is the enzyme the kinetics of which have been supported by Michaelis and Menten to be revolutionary for the kinetics of other enzymes. While expressing the rate of the reaction studied, they derived an equation that described the rate in a way which suggested that it is mostly ...
This is produced by taking the reciprocal of both sides of the Michaelis–Menten equation. As shown on the right, this is a linear form of the Michaelis–Menten equation and produces a straight line with the equation y = mx + c with a y-intercept equivalent to 1/V max and an x-intercept of the graph representing −1/K M.
For Michaelis–Menten–Monod (MMM) kinetics it is intended the coupling of an enzyme-driven chemical reaction of the Michaelis–Menten type [1] with the Monod growth of an organisms that performs the chemical reaction. [2]
The Michaelis-Menten constant is denoted by K m and is represented by the equation K m = (K off + K cat)/ K on [definition needed]. The rates that the enzyme binds and dissociates from the substrate are represented by K on and K off respectively. K m is also defined as the substrate concentration at which enzymatic velocity reaches half of its ...
A plot depicting the initial reaction rate versus substrate concentration as modeled by the Michaelis-Menten equation (solid line) and the Haldane equation for substrate inhibition (dotted line). One of the most well known equations to describe single-substrate enzyme kinetics is the Michaelis-Menten equation.
Reversible Michaelis–Menten kinetics, using the reversible form of the Michaelis–Menten equation, is therefore important when developing computer models of cellular processes involving enzymes. In enzyme kinetics, the Michaelis–Menten kinetics kinetic rate law that describes the conversion of one substrate to one product, is often ...
