Derivation of Initial Velocity Rate Equations

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Molecular Biology Biochemistry and Biophysics ((MOLECULAR,volume 22))

Abstract

The initial rate equation for enzyme catalyzed reactions that describes initial reaction velocity as a function of substrate concentration had its origins in the work of HENRI (1), BROWN (2), MICHAELIS and MENTEN (3) and BRIGGS and HALDANE (4).
