I can see why there are so many confused people here. Rather than this being one reaction, it should be looked at as data from a set of reactions (experimentss) whereby the only thing differing in each experiment is the concentration of the substrate, starting with low concentration and increasing it with each reaction. That is how the curve is formed, and I really think that should have been explained at the start to avoid confusion.

X-axis is the concentration of substrate....when we assayed the enzyme substrate solutions we recorded the change in absorbance over time. One assay to find the best concentration of enzyme, to use for the second assay. Then the second assay using a fixed amount of enzyme and varrying concentration of substrate/buffer. In the second assay we measured abs every 15 sec for 2 min straight, did this for each concentration prepared in mM(adding enzyme right before the assay). We plotted umol/min on the y-axis, eventually but this(MMeq. Graph) is the 3rd out of 4 graphs that we needed for the one experiment, to analyze our results. Pretty crazy stuff, right! No way he could do the whole explination of the expirement in one video lol, I thought it was a good video for MM eq.

when t = 0, wouldn't that mean that the system is saturated in substrate since the substrate did not bind to the enzyme to form a product? (E + S ES E + P) The graph is initial Velocity with respect to Substrate Concentration, so what does time have to do with anything in the examples? Shouldn't we just assume when Substrate Concentration is very low? Thank You

Here's what I don't understand, If while deriving the MM equation we have to make the assumption that we are only looking at t approximately equal 0, then why can we continue to use the equation to describe V naught when time does not equal zero?
@JafarChou7 жыл бұрын
In some textbooks, they tell you to simply take the inverse of the x-axis and inverse of the y-axis, because given that it's impossible to find the exact value of Vmax (being that's it's asymptotic), when you do a double-reciprocal, where the x-axis is 1/S and the y axis is 1/V, the value of 1/Vmax is the point touching the y-axis, and the value of -1/Km is the point touching the x-axis. You can calculate the values of Vmax and Km from that.

I do not understand why we can make all of these assumptions. Why can we just assume that the Km value is equal to [S]? We derived the Km value from three K constants of three different reaction, therefore we can conclude that it is a constant as well. Why is this constant equals to [S]...? Additionally you said that since Km is in the denominator with [S] then it has to have the same units. How is that statement even true? Sorry, experiencing a lot of frustration with this subject, and that statement + Assumptions are just causing confusion.. Anyone knows how to actually intuitively understand this equation?

Why do enzymes don't have a slow step? Is it because of the structure of enzymes? It would be really helpful if you could answer me!

Hello, very nice video! I'm using your videos to prepare myself for an exam! Sorry for my English, I am not a native speaker! I have a quastion to this video. Why are you just simplifing the denominator from the fraction [S]/Km+[S]? You said in point (2) that the concentration of Km is higher than the concentration of [S] in the beginning of the reaction. So why do you not equalize Km=S also in the numerator of the fraction? Then there would be Km/Km?
@AKLECTURES9 жыл бұрын

how can be the concentration of substrate in the end very high? The substrate is converting in product so he lowers the concentration, right??? I am confuse now... :/
@dcdc83298 жыл бұрын
+Stephany Baggins Hi Stephany, here I think how this biological reaction prooceeds. Note: In "biological reactions", we can assume that we have very high amount of substrate compare to the amount of enzymes. For example, if we have 1 million units of substrates, we might have only 100 units of enzymes. @At beginning:: we asume that we have no substrate. That's why we can also assume that Km >> substrate. @At end:: it will take physiological condition when substrate number is much higher than enzymes( and also product). Thus, we can assume that substrate >> Km. Basically, for this kind of physiological reaction, we assume that substrates will not run out.

I am asking because V naught is represented in the Y. Does that mean that the higher the scale, the V naught's value increases (like many graphs) or is the V naught constant? Some graphs state that the V naught has a directly proportional relationship with [S] but if V naught is stated as constant, (aka same value) how could it increase? Sorry if this a confusing question

Anoop Rao 3 years later, but I had to answer this. He’s referring to the addition of substrate. Meaning, when you design the Vo vs Substrate concentration at the lowest point is when you used the lowest substrate concentration As you go to the right side of the graph - you add increasing amounts of substrate until your reaction rate levels off at the pleateu that means every enzyme is full and acting at its maximum rate - vmax
