Enzymatic reactions • So: • 1) v0 (initial velocity) is the rate of the reaction very early on when [P] is negligeable; • 2) v0 can be obtained by taking the slope of the graph of [P] vs Time (units: concentration / time) • 3) v0 varies as a function of [E]; • 4) v0 increases as a function of [S] UNTIL E is saturated by S. • 5) When E is saturated with S v0 = Vmax CHMI 2227 - E.R. Gauthier, Ph.D.
The relationship between vo and [S] can be viewed as a 2 step reaction: This relationship can be expressed by the Michaelis-Menten equation: Maximum velocity = Vmax Vmax k1 k2 k-1 ½ Vmax FAST SLOW v0 [Substrate] vo = Vmax [S] Km + [S] E + S ES E + P Michaelis-Menten Equation CHMI 2227 - E.R.

E1 Vmax E2 ½ Vmax v0 [Substrate] Km2 Km1 Michaelis-Menten Equation • Km can be calculated as the [S] required to acheive half the Vmax; • Km is a measure of the affinity of E for S: • The lower the Km, the less S is requried by E to acheive ½ Vmax, and the greater the affinity of E for S.

k1 k2 K-1 FAST SLOW E + S ES E + P Turnover number • At saturating [S] : • vo = Vmax • vo is determined by [E] • k2 will drive the rate; • k2= kcat • So: Vmax = kcat [E]total • kcat = Vmax/[E]total • kcat = turnover number = maximum number of substrate molecules converted to product per second by each active site (units = s-1) • 1/kcat = amount of time required for E to convert 1 substrate molecule to the product (i.e. time for 1 catalytic event). Units: s. CHMI 2227 - E.R. Gauthier, Ph.D.
Neither Km nor Vmax can be easily obtained directly from kinetic data because Vmax is rarely acheived (its an hyperbolic curve…); Vmax ½ Vmax v0 Km [Substrate] Measuring Km and Vmax CHMI 2227 - E.R. Gauthier, Ph.D.
1/vo 1/Vmax 1/[S] = Km x 1 + 1 1 vo [S] Vmax -1/Km Vmax Lineweaver-Burk plot Measuring Km and Vmax • However, Km and Vmax can be easily obtained if we take the reciprocal of (and slightly rearrange) the Michaelis-Menten equation: the Lineweaver-Burk equation: • The graph of 1/vo vs 1/[S] gives a straight line with: • Intercept on the x axis = -1/Km • Intercept on the y axis = 1/Vmax • This is the BEST and EASIEST way to accurately obtain Vmax and Km since: • You know [S] (you’re the one who did the experiment!!) • V0 is easily obtained in the lab (slope of [P] vs Time).
