MCAT Question of the Day
Q:
The steps of the net enzymatic reaction Substrate (S) ↔ Product (P) can be written as follows, where E represents the enzyme:
E + S ↔ ES ↔ EP ↔ E + P
In most enzymatic reactions, the rate-limiting step is the binding of the substrate to the enzyme. This suggests the rate law of the overall reaction S ↔ P can be written as:
A
rate = k[E][S]
B
rate = k[ES]
C
rate = k[E][P]
D
The answer cannot be determined from the given information.
