Prerequisits for Michaelis-Menten equation
1.) refers to
E + S ↔ ES → E + P
equation where there is
one substrate, and product conversion to ES is negligable
2.) steady state condition: [ES] is constant, so ES formation and degradation
velocity are equal, appearance of P is linear in time, E is saturated
with S
3.) slowest step is the formation of P, its rate constant is k2
4.) refers to initial velocity: [P] < 5% of [S], product does not compete with
substrate
5.) [S]>>[E]
(10-12 < [E ]< 10-7, 10-6 < [S] < 10-2 M)
Any reaction to proceed spontaneously needs net energy liberation: ΔG < 0.
The speed of a reaction depends on the amount of the activation energy (Ea), the energetic barrier
to be overcome.
Arrhenius equation: rate constant = k = Ae-Ea/RT
Enzymes catalyze the chemical reactions by decreasing the activation energy. They speed up the rate
by creating a new route, the so called ES complex.
Enzymes do not change the Gibbs free energy, but in case of themselves endothermic reactions,
the energetically unfavourable reaction is coupled to an exothermic rection in spce and
time, consequently the net reaction is negative.
Enzymes bind the substrate to the substrate binding site by induced fit, so proper arrangement of
active site groups fit only for the transition state of the ES complex. Multiple week
interactions result strain in ES complex to accelerate the conversion to product.
Characteristics of M-M kinetics
1.) Initial velocity / substrate cc. graph is right rectangular hyperbolic curve,
assimptotes are vmax and –KM, Maximal velocity is reached at infinite S cc.
2.) If total enzyme cc.↑ then maximal velocity ↑
3.) Michaelis-Menten constant is a constant in case of an E-S pair and
pH, T, ionic strengh, other enzyme ligands are constant
4.) vmax depends on: pH, T, ionic strengh and type, presence of proper metal ions,
coenzymes, activatory and inhibitory allosteric ligands, covalent
modification of the enzyme, and enzyme amount
5.) double reciprocal 1/v versus 1/S curve is linear, intersepts: 1/vmax and 1/-KM
6.) Km = S cc. if v = vmax/2
depends on pH, T, ionic milieau
7.) Km = sum of ES degradation reaction velocity rate constants divided by
ES formation reaction velocity rate constant
k1 + k2

Michaelis-Menten equation:

—— = ————
vmax KM + [S]
hyperbolic curve: shaft of initial velocity curve approaches
but only reaches the maximal velocity at infinite S conc.
Why determine KM?
1)
Physiological substrate concentration is around KM.
2)
Measuring KM os different origin (species, tissues, cell organell) enzymes, we can determine
their identity or difference (another protein).
3)
Too big difference of assumed physiological value and in vitro value of KM means that anzyme
activator or inhibitor effects in the cell.
4)
vmax can be measured, where [S] >> KM.
5)
One enzyme can accept several substrates. The best S is that shich has the highest vmax/KM
ratio (meaning probably the lowest KM.)
KM is increased by
a.) a competitive inhibitor that competes with the S to bind to the active site or
b.) a K-type allosteric inhibitor that when it binds to the allosteric binding site (not to the active
site) decreases the enzyme affinity to substrate (less S will be bound).
KM is decreased by
an allosteric K-type activator that increases the affinity of the enzyme for substrate.
Effects of different parameters
1.) Reaction / incubation time
Initial velocity should be: P(t) graph must be linear, time has to be short enough.
If incubation time ↑, time ↑ for denaturation because of high temperature or pH
2.) pH: optimum depends on the amino acid composition of the enzyme
proper ionization is necessary for S – catalytic site interaction;
altered (rather extreme) pH leads to dehydration and denaturation of
enzyme protein, the tertiary structure is disrupted.
Different enzymes have different pH optimum peak and range.
Blood: 7.4; stomach: 1-2; lysosomes, vesicles: 5; small intestine: 7-8 pH occurs.
3.) Temperature:
if T increases, then number of effective collision of molecules in proper
orientation will elevate, more molecules will have the activation energy,
the sufficient energy for reaction. Velocity is increased at low T when
T is increasing.
If T increase, then kinetic energy of atoms in molecules will increase, bonds are
disrupted leading to denaturation and lowering the volocity.
The two opposite effect yealds the optimum curve, the top is around body temp.
Together: temperature optimum depends on the interaction between amino acids

Non-equilibrium reaction
vf >> vr
Near-equilibrium reaction
Vf ≈ vr
Reason: this enzyme activity and/or
qantity is the smallest of all
This enzyme is highly active compared to
non-equilibrium enzymes
Therefore: [S] >>[A]
Therefore: [A] ≈ [B]
If [S]↑, then vf not ↑
because E1 is saturated with S
and v = vmax
If [A]↑, then A → B and vf↑
E2 is not saturated with A
v <<vmax
If [A]↑, then vr↑, but [S]↑ is neglectable
If [B]↑,then A ← B and vr↑, [A] ↑

If E1 concentration or activity is increased,
then vmax will elevate, and product „A”
grows up
If E2 conc. or activity is increased,
then both vf and vr will elevate,
therefore equilibrium is not changed
E1 activity can be regulated by
allostericaly and/ or
covalent modification
E2 is regulated by substrate and/or
product concentration change
E1 concentration can be changed at
transcription or translation level
E2 is not regulated by ligands or
other way
Flux-generating reaction
Is that non-equilibrium reaction in the beginning of a pathway that is saturated by
the pathway substrate and determines the speed of the whole pathway, ie.
each reactions in the pathway has the same velocity.
A metabolic pathway is a series of enzyme-catalized reactions, initiated by a
flux-generating step and ending with either the loss of products to the
environment, to a stored product (a metabolic ‘sink’) or in a reaction that
precedes another flux-generating step (that is the beginning of the next pathway.
