Enzyme Kinetics (Michaelis-Menten)Live
reaction rate vs substrate
Controls
Presets
Michaelis-Menten kinetics describe how reaction rate rises with substrate and saturates at Vmax. Km is the substrate concentration giving half-maximal rate — a measure of enzyme affinity. A competitive inhibitor raises the apparent Km without changing Vmax, seen as a shift in the double-reciprocal Lineweaver-Burk line.
Data Inspector
Vmax100
Apparent Km5.0
v at [S]=Km50.0
Governing equation
Reading this result: With Km 5, the rate hits half of Vmax (100) at [S]=5; pushing substrate well past Km barely raises v as the curve flattens toward saturation.
