An enzyme catalyzes the reaction A ® B. The initial rate of the reaction was measured as a function of the concentration of A (substrate). The following data were obtained: [10 pts.]

[A], micromolar         V0, nmoles/min

                  0.05                            0.08

                  0.1                              0.16

                  0.5                              0.79

                  1                                  1.6

                  5                                  7.3

               10                               13

               50                               40

             100                               53

             500                               73

         1,000                               76

         5,000                               79

       10,000                               80

       20,000                               80

Answer the following questions:

What is the Km of the enzyme for the substrate A?

What is the value of V0 when [A] = 43?

What is the value of the y-intercept of the line?

What is the value of the x-intercept of the line?

Hint: Plot 1/ V0 vs. 1/[A], and a straight line will be obtained (for c and d).
