In this paper we re-examine the commonly accepted meaning of the two kinetic constants characterizing any enzymatic reaction, according to Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Expanding in terms of exponentials the solutions of the ODEs governing the reaction, we determine a new constant, which corrects some misinterpretations of current biochemical literature.

Abstract
In this paper we re-examine the commonly accepted meaning of the two kinetic constants characterizing any enzymatic reaction, according to Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Expanding in terms of exponentials the solutions of the ODEs governing the reaction, we determine a new constant, which corrects some misinterpretations of current biochemical literature.File allegati a questo prodotto
