- The mechanism of chymotrypsin can be viewed as a two-step process, acylation of the enzyme active site followed by a deacylation reaction. What accounts for the observed "burst" in rapid kinetic studies of the hydrolysis of N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine p-nitrophenyl ester by chymotrypsin? The rate of hydrolysis of the acyl-enzyme intermediate is faster than the rate of forming the acyl-enzyme intermediate. The rates of the acylation and deacylation reactions are equal. The rate of the acylation reaction is slower than the rate of the deacylation reaction.
