Which of the following assumptions or limitations are
required to derive the Michaelis-Menten rate equation?
Question 18 options:
The concentration of enzyme is in excess over
the concentration of substrate to ensure
pseudo-first order conditions where the
concentration of enzyme can be considered not
to change during the course of the reaction
A "steady-state condition" exists in which the
rate of the forward reaction going from
substrate to product equals the rate of the
backward reaction going from product to
substrate
The rate of the enzyme catalyzed reaction is
only being measured at the start of the reaction
before an appreciable amount of product
accumulates
The concentration of substrate added to the
reaction is assumed not to change appreciably
during the time course of the experiment used
to measure the rate of reaction.
