Here we have to write a simple equation which describes the action of the enzyme catalase.
The equation is: The concentration of the complex [ES] =
Let us consider an enzyme catalyses reaction E + S ⇄ ES → E + P
Where E, S, ES and P are enzyme, substrate, complex and product respectively.
The concentration of the complex [ES] = , where
is the Michaelis constant.
[E]₀ and [S] is the initial concentration of enzyme and concentration of substrate respectively.
