The plot is occasionally attributed to Augustinsson [5] and referred to the Woolf–Augustinsson–Hofstee plot [6] [7] [8] or simply the Augustinsson plot. [9] However, although Haldane, Woolf or Eadie were not explicitly cited when Augustinsson introduced the versus / equation, both the work of Haldane [10] and of Eadie [3] are cited at other places of his work and are listed in his ...
The Lineweaver–Burk plot derives from a transformation of the Michaelis–Menten equation, = + in which the rate is a function of the substrate concentration and two parameters , the limiting rate, and , the Michaelis constant.
In enzyme kinetics, a secondary plot uses the intercept or slope from several Lineweaver–Burk plots to find additional kinetic constants. [1] [2]For example, when a set of v by [S] curves from an enzyme with a ping–pong mechanism (varying substrate A, fixed substrate B) are plotted in a Lineweaver–Burk plot, a set of parallel lines will be produced.
On a Lineweaver-Burk plot, the presence of a noncompetitive inhibitor is illustrated by a change in the y-intercept, defined as 1/V max. The x-intercept, defined as −1/K M, will remain the same. In competitive inhibition, the inhibitor will bind to an enzyme at the active site, competing with the substrate.
in which e is the concentration of free enzyme (not the total concentration) and x is the concentration of enzyme-substrate complex EA. Conservation of enzyme requires that [28] = where is now the total enzyme concentration. After combining the two expressions some straightforward algebra leads to the following expression for the concentration ...
The Enzyme Commission number (EC number) is a numerical classification scheme for enzymes, based on the chemical reactions they catalyze. [1] As a system of enzyme nomenclature , every EC number is associated with a recommended name for the corresponding enzyme-catalyzed reaction.
These enzymes belong to a larger superfamily of Phospholipase C. Other families of phospholipase C enzymes have been identified in bacteria and trypanosomes. Phospholipases C are phosphodiesterases. Phospholipase Cs participate in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP 2) metabolism and lipid signaling pathways in a calcium-dependent manner.
In enzymology, 4-aminobutyrate transaminase (EC 2.6.1.19), also called GABA transaminase or 4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase, or GABA-T, is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction: 4-aminobutanoate + 2-oxoglutarate ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } succinate semialdehyde + L-glutamate
