In a particular enzyme-catalyzed reaction, Vmax = 0.2 mol/sec and Km = 6 mM. Assume the enzyme shows standard Michaelis-Menten kinetics. What is the rate of the reaction when [S] = 20 mM?(a) 0.155(b) 0.156(c) 0.153(d) 0.152I have been asked this question in semester exam.Asked question is from General Reaction Kinetics for Biological Systems topic in section Homogenous Reactions of Bioprocess Engineering |
Answer» CORRECT OPTION is (C) 0.153 The explanation is: V = Vmax[S] / (KM + [S]) = 0.2×20 / (6+20) = 0.153. |
