1
Why study enzyme kinetics? To quantitate enzyme characteristics define substrate and inhibitor affinities define maximum catalytic rates Describe how reaction rates vary with reaction conditions Provide an understanding of an enzyme’s role in a metabolic pathway Define the conditions under which the rate of the reaction is proportional to the amount of enzyme present biochemical and clinical enzyme assays
2
Enzyme Kinetics
3
First- and Second- order reactions First-orderSecond order
4
Half-life of first-order reactions When [A] = 1/2 the initial concentration [A] 0 (For a second-order reaction: t 1/2 = 1/k [A] o )
5
Decay curves for 1st and 2nd order reactions of same half-life
6
First- and Second- order reactions First-orderSecond order Ln[A] Time 1/[A] ln[A] = ln[A] 0 -kt 1/A = 1/A 0 + kt ln[A] 0 Slope = -k 1/A 0 Slope = k
8

Plots of Initial rates and Reactant Concentrations Differ for enzymatic and non-enzymatic reactions Non- enzymaticenzymatic

19
Use of “turnover number” and “catalytic efficiency” as measures of enzyme behavior
20
Kinetic constants for some enzymes and substrates
21
Reversibility of the reaction adds complexity to the rate equation For the simple reversible reaction The velocity of the reaction is: Where When [P] =0, i.e. when v = v 0 then the more familiar Michelis-Menten form is evident:
22
Enzyme Inhibition: Irreversible
23
Enzyme Inhibition: Reversible
24
Enzyme Inhibition: Reversible (mixed)
25
Enzyme Inhibition: Reversible (competitive)
