    Study Notes

    Kinetic Methods vs. Equilibrium Methods

    • The main difference between kinetic and equilibrium methods is that kinetic methods measure the rate of a reaction, whereas equilibrium methods measure the reactant and product concentrations at equilibrium.

    Kinetic Methods

    • Kinetic methods are widely used in enzymology, specifically to study enzyme reactions and their mechanisms.
    • The rate law for a reaction is a mathematical expression that describes the relationship between the rate of a reaction and the concentrations of reactants.
    • A substrate is a molecule that is acted on by an enzyme to produce a product.

    Enzyme Reactions

    • Enzyme activators are molecules that increase the activity of an enzyme, often by binding to the enzyme's active site.
    • The Michaelis-Menten mechanism is a model that describes the kinetics of enzyme reactions, where an enzyme-substrate complex forms, and then breaks down to release the product.
    • The enzyme-substrate complex is called the Michaelis complex.
    • The Michaelis-Menten mechanism involves two steps: the formation of the enzyme-substrate complex, and the breakdown of the complex to release the product.

    Catalyzed Reactions

    • A catalyst is a species that enhances the rate of a reaction but does not take part in the stoichiometric reaction.
    • Catalyzed methods are based on the ability of catalysts to increase the rate of a reaction.

    Fixed-Time Methods

    • Fixed-time methods are a type of kinetic method that involve measuring the reaction rate at a fixed time interval.
    • The advantage of using fixed-time methods is that they provide a snapshot of the reaction rate at a specific point in time.

    Types of Kinetic Methods

    • There are two main types of kinetic methods: fixed-time methods and kinetic methods that measure the rate of reaction over time.

    Enzyme Reactions

    • Some types of reactions that kinetic methods can be based on include enzyme-catalyzed reactions, where the rate of the reaction is measured as a function of substrate concentration.
