1.
Use the axes above to plot the results
of an experiment with an enzyme:
a. Complete the labeling of the
x and y axes by providing the units on the graph.
b. Plot the expected data for
a typical enzyme. Label this curve as "A"
c. Label Km and Vmax
at their correct locations. The units of Km are______________
The units of
Vmax are _____________________________.
d.
Draw a plot of the data that would result if an allosteric inhibitor were
added to the enzyme during the assay. This inhibitor renders affected
enzyme molecules inactive. Label this plot "I".
e.
The allosteric inhibitor used in part d. above had what effect on the value
of the enzyme's
Vmax ________________ Km ________________?
