Explain how knowledge of the Km value may help to explain me
Explain how knowledge of the Km value may help to explain metabolic regulation in vivo in situations where one enzyme may act on two different substates or two enzymes on one substrate. Please answer this in just a few sentences.
Solution
Km value;
concentrate of the substrate to which the velocity of the reaction is half maximam, enzyme concentration is totally independent, unit of the Km value is moles/lit
according to the question substrate when enter into the metabolic regulation in the vivo(in the body), the enzyme was involves in two different subatrates its should be have the less or pure metabolic acitivity why because enzyme will be avilabule in the small amount,
when the two enzymes are shows the action on the only one particular substrate its should be had a good metabolic acitivity with the good concentrations
metabolic regulation in vivo its helpful to the Km value
