Parameter Reliability and Understanding Enzyme Function

Knowledge of the Michaelis–Menten parameters and their meaning in different circumstances is an essential prerequisite to understanding enzyme function and behaviour. The published literature contains an abundance of values reported for many enzymes. The problem concerns assessing the appropriatenes...
