Question
Chapter 8, Problem 34P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
An expression that relates the ratio of the utilization of A and B,
Concept introduction:
The Michaelis-Menten equation relates the concentration of substrate with the velocity of reaction. A constant which expresses the substrate’s concentration if the velocity of a reaction equals half of the maximum velocity of the reaction is known as Michaelis-Menten constant. It is denoted by

- Inducers and Inhibitors of AEP. Short peptides such as legumain stabilization and activity modulation (LSAM) domain and αvβ3 integrin could enhance the activity of AEP. LSAM domain known as the prodomain of AEP blocks substrate binding before activation. This prodomain has a helical structure and two independent peptides. One is an activation peptide (AP, K287 to N323), and the other is a LSAM domain. LSAM domain remains even after AP is cleaved and released from protease at neutral pH via electrostatic interaction. AEP without LSAM domain has a lower melting temperature than AEP with LSAM domain [77, 117]. Another short peptide, αvβ3 integrin, can directly interact with AEP, and after forming a complex, the optimal pH for AEP activity is increased from 5.5 to 6.0. It indicates that αvβ3 binding could induce conformational stabilization of AEP accompanied by deprotonated C189. αvβ3 does not directly interact with the AEP active site; however, AEP docks to the αvβ3 RGD-binding site…arrow_forwardEnzymes catalyze chemical reactions.
