Question

Kinetic data for an enzyme E was measured in the absence and presence of an inhibitor called compound Z with a NEW substrate, S. The concentration of enzyme used in each case was 5.0 x 10^7 M. The concentration of compound Z used was 1.0 x 10^7 M. Line weaver-Burk plots of the data are shown below. The equation of each line is also included. b. Clearly label the lines on the graph to identify which line is for the data measured in the absence of inhibitor and which is for the data measured in the presence of the inhibitor. (2 pts)

Explanation / Answer

First line .is used for measured in presence of inhibitor asboth apparent value decreases
