Question

Please help. Got this question wrong on my test but I keep redoing it and getting the same answer. IIl. Enzyme Kinetics. Acting a range finding study. 1 mL of a ution of enzyme concentrate was used in each assay An inhibitor was present in some trials at 10 M. eciprocal plot (Lineweaver-Burke) method, 1:10 dil tube. Using double r determine Km and Vmas of the enzyme. Determine the type of inhibitor. What is the estimated K, of the inhibitor?

The Vmax for No inhibitor is calculated as follows:

y = 0.5009x + 0.03

Vmax = 1/ 0.03

= 33.33 n mol/min.

The Km for No inhibitor:

y = 0.5009x + 0.03

Km = 0.03/ 0.5009

= 0.059 n mol.

The Vmax in presence of inhibitor is calculated as follows:

y = 0.4984x + 0.06

Vmax = 1/ 0.06

= 16.66 n mol/min.

The Km for No inhibitor:

y = 0.4984x + 0.06

Km = 0.06/ 0.4984

= 0.120 n mol.

Thus, the kind of inhibitor used in the experiment is uncompetitive inhibitor.
