Simple enzyme kinetic mechanisms that can give all possible velocity profiles with chemically reasonable rate constant values. 1983

W G Bardsley

It is shown that all rate profiles and double reciprocal plots possible for arbitrary rational functions of degree n:n can be given by enzyme mechanisms in which rate constant values are limited by physical constraints. The significance of this finding in the theory of complex kinetics is explained, and the application in the area of non-linear regression analysis of complex kinetic data and model discrimination, is discussed.
