Which of the following is the correct Line weaver-Burk equation?(a) \(\frac{1}{V_0} = \frac{K_m}{V_{max} [S]} + \frac{1}{V_{max}} \)(b) \(\frac{1}{V_{max}} = \frac{K_m}{V_0 [S]} + \frac{1}{V_0} \)(c) \(V_0 = \frac{V_{max} [S]}{K_m+[S]} \)(d) \(V_{max} = \frac{V_0 [S]}{K_m+[S]} \)I had been asked this question in quiz.I'm obligated to ask this question of Enzyme Kinetics as an Approach to Understanding Mechanism topic in chapter Enzymes, Carbohydrates and Gycobiology of Biochemistry |
Answer» RIGHT option is (a) \(\FRAC{1}{V_0} = \frac{K_m}{V_{max} [S]} + \frac{1}{V_{max}} \) For explanation: Line weaver-Burk equation: \(\frac{1}{V_0} = \frac{K_m}{V_{max} [S]} + \frac{1}{V_{max}} \) Michaelis-Menten equation: \(V_0 = \frac{V_{max} [S]}{K_m+[S]} \) |
