Determine the type of inhibition that has occurred in a first order Michaelis-Menten enzyme catalyzed reaction that has yielded the following data. Vi is the velocity in the presence of inhibitor, V is the velocity when run without inhibitor and [S] refers to the substrate concentration. [S] V Vi 3.333 0.283 0.055 1.000 0.260 0.054 0.400 0.222 0.052 0.263 0.197 0.051 0.179 0.171 0.049

competitive inhibition

Explanation:

Given in the first order .

= velocity in the presence of the inhibitor

V = velocity when run without the inhibitor.

S = substrate concentration

We need to plot a curve for  vs    and a second plot of    vs  

By plotting the curve we see that the slope and the intercept are not the same for the two curves.

And also, the for the second curve with the inhibitor is lower than the first curve.

Therefore, the inhibition type would be competitive.
