What is the definition of steady state conditions in enzyme-catalyzed reactions?
At the start of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, which of the following is true about the concentrations of the reactants and products?
During the pre-steady state period, how do the concentrations of enzyme-substrate complex and product change?
Given the rate constants k1, k-1, and k2, how is the Michaelis constant (Km) calculated under steady state conditions?
How do steady state conditions apply to the enzyme-substrate complex concentration while substrate and product concentrations change?
Why is the steady state assumption crucial for deriving the Michaelis constant (Km) and the Michaelis-Menten equation?
