ENZYME KINETICS ANALYSIS
of 6
Xanthine oxidase (XO) is the enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of uric acid, which in excess
causes gouty arthritis. The inhibition of this enzyme is therefore critical in its treatment. A student
researcher is investigating the inhibitory effects of kaempferol (Kmp) and chlorogenic acid (Cha) on XO
which uses xanthine (Xan) as substrate. Table 1 below shows the enzyme kinetic data. Construct the
Lineweaver-Burk plot complete with the linear regression analvsis. Fill in the needed information on Table
2 and paste a copy of your Lineweaver-Burk plot. submit the picture of your output in PNG or JPG format.

Lineweaver-Burk Plot
Initial rate data for an enzyme that obeys Michaelis–Menten kinetics areshown in the following table. When the enzyme concentration is 3 nmolml-1, a Lineweaver–Burk plot of this data gives a line with a y-intercept of0.00426 (μmol-1 ml s). (a) Calculate kcat for the reaction.(b) Calculate KM for the enzyme.(c) When the reactions in part (b) are repeated in the presence of 12 μM ofan uncompetitive inhibitor, the y-intercept of the Lineweaver–Burk plotis 0.352 (μmol-1 ml s). Calculate K′I for this inhibitor.
