For a simple reaction, S 1 P, k1 is the rate of the forward reaction and k-1 is the rate of the backwards reaction.  The k1 in the absence of any enzyme was 0.01/s.  The k1 in the presence of enzyme was 5,000,000/s. Calculate the rate enhancement (k1 catalyzed divided by k1 uncatalyzed) provided by the enzyme. If the equilibrium constant in the absence of enzyme is 1 x 104, what is the equilibrium constant (Keq) in the presence of enzyme?
