Vedclass · Answer

(B) In the Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetics model,the reaction is represented as $E+S \underset{K_2}{\stackrel{K_1}{\rightleftharpoons}} E S \xrightarrow{K_3} E+P$
Here,$K_1$ is the rate constant for the formation of the enzyme-substrate complex,$K_2$ is the rate constant for the dissociation of the complex back into enzyme and substrate,and $K_3$ (often denoted as $k_{cat}$) is the rate constant for the formation of the product.
The Michaelis constant $K_m$ is defined as the substrate concentration at which the reaction rate is half of the maximum velocity $(V_{max})$.
Mathematically,it is expressed as $K_m = \frac{K_2 + K_3}{K_1}$.
