Determiningenzyme parameters than a saturation curve

Reference no: EM13533537

The Lineweaver-Burk graph is easier to use for determiningenzyme parameters than a saturation curve because:

a.) It is not hyperbolic.

b.) The Vmax can be determined from taking the (-)reciprocal of the y-intercept.

c.) The slope of the graph= Km/Vmax.

d.) The x and y intercepts for the straight line provideeasy ways to determine Km and Vmax.

e.)All of these are correct
