Michaelis enzyme kinetics
describes the relationship between the initial velocity of a single substrate enzymatic reaction and the substrate concentration.
symbols, variables and units
v,V_max: concentration/time; [S],K_m: substrate concentration, the unit is the same.
applicable conditions and boundaries
Initial rate, quasi-steady state, single substrate simple mechanism; does not directly describe synergistic effects.
