Which of the following is not an assumption that is made when applying Michaelis-Menten kinetics to an enzyme? Choose one:

A. The rate constant of E+Pre-associating to form the ES complex must be considered

B. The reaction must be considered early, before any appreciable amount of product has been generated.

C. The product release is a rapid step in the process

D. The concentration of ES is relatively constant after the initial reaction time.

Respuesta :

Answer:

C

The product release is not considered a rapid step in the process.

Answer:the statement that is not an assumption that is made when applying Michaelis-Menten kinetics to an enzyme is option B (The reaction must be considered early, before any appreciable amount of product has been generated.)

Explanation:Michaelis-Menten kinetics

describes the rate of enzymatic reactions, by relating reaction rate of formation of product to the concentration of a substrate.
