S4 S3 Product Increasing substrate concentration S2 S1 Time Review: How do we characterize enzyme functions? The rate of an enzymatic reaction depends on the concentration of substrate. The Michaelis-Menten equation relates the initial velocity of the reaction to the concentration of substrate. V V = Vmax [S]/([S]+Km) [S]
Review: How do we characterize enzyme functions? The Lineweaver-Burke and Eadie-Hofstee equations transform the Michaelis-Menten data to more accurately estimate Km and Vmax. 1/V 1/V = (Km/Vmax)(1/[S]) + 1/ Vmax 1/[S] V V/[S]

Summary • Enzyme activity can be inhibited by compounds that interact • with the enzyme’s active site (or with other sites that change • the enzyme’s structure). • Competitive inhibitors bind to the active site and compete • with substrate. • Non-competitive inhibitors bind to a separate site and • Inactivate the active site. • Uncompetitive inhibitors bind to an enzyme-substrate complex. • The type of competition and the enzyme-inhibitor binding • affinity can be determined from Michaelis-Menten kinetic • experiments.
