Is the Michaelis-Menten equation useful when studying allosteric enzymes?
a)Yes Only if the enzyme displays positive cooperativity.
b)Only if the enzyme displays negative cooperativity. No

Respuesta :

Answer:

b) Only if the enzyme displays negative cooperativity. No

Explanation:

Allosteric enzymes have more than one active site and have positive co-operativity. They yield a sigmoidal curve (Rate of reaction versus substrate) while those enzymes which follow the Michaelis-Menten equation yield a rectangular hyperbolic curve.
