Abstract

Analyses of reactions using Michaelis-Menten kinetics usually assume that the reaction product is stable. However such an assumption is not always satisfied. In this paper, an analysis of the Michaelis-Menten kinetics has been performed assuming the product is unstable. The explicit time-course equation of the immediate product has been derived under conditions of limiting enzyme concentration. The analysis is based on the time progress curves of the product and/or on the progress curve of the species, into which the immediate product is transformed. This approach allows the successful determination of all the rate constants.
