Tutorial 3: Michaelis-Menten Kinetics
Lesson PDF: Lesson3_MichaelisMenten.pdf
On your own:
How does changing the amount of enzyme ([E_T]) affect the rate of product formation (dP/dt)?
How does changing kcat affect the rate of product formation (dP/dt) when the amount of substrate is small? When the amount of substrate is large?
Optional: Using MATLAB or Python, plot rate of product formation (dP/dt) as a function of the amount of substrate ([S]). How does this curve change as K_M increases?
