Factors affecting the rate of reactions

Substrate conc. limiting
Enzyme limiting
EFFECT OF SUBSTRATE CONC. ON REACTIONS
More substrate more chance of a collision between substrate and enzyme
↑substrate ↑number of reactions
![Page 3: Limiting factors Factors affecting the rate of reactions.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102718/56649d985503460f94a82780/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Enzyme concentration
More enzyme more chance of a collision
↑ Reaction rate
Enzyme activity will not increase
If enzymes are limiting, reaction rate will drop off, but enzymes are re-usable, so the reaction will continue

EFFECT OF ENZYME CONC. ON REACTIONS

Enzyme cofactors
• May be – Organic co-enzymes, usually vitamins eg vit B– Activating ions eg Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+
• complete or alter the enzyme active site
• increase enzyme activity (enzyme molecules work more effectively)
• Without the cofactors the enzyme will not work, or will work too slowly.

Rate of reaction increases rapidly.
Cofactor conc. is limiting
Rate of reaction levels off.
Not enough enzyme for the co-factors to attach to – enzymes
are limiting
EFFECT OF COFACTOR CONC. ON REACTIONS

Inhibitors
Competitive inhibitors bind to the enzyme active site, so substrate cannot bind (eg the product of a reaction may bind, preventing too much product being formed)
Non-competitive inhibitors (allosteric) usually bind somewhere other than the active site, denaturing the enzyme permanently (eg many poisons, such as heavy metal ions, act this way)
Reactions stops or occurs at a very low rate

EFFECT OF INHIBITOR CONC. ON REACTIONS

Temperature
At low temperatures enzymes and substrates have less energy, so they move less and collide less often.
However, at temperatures a little over the optimal temperature the enzymes become denatured and reaction comes to a stop.
Denaturation = change in protein shape enzyme can’t function
![Page 10: Limiting factors Factors affecting the rate of reactions.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102718/56649d985503460f94a82780/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

– irreversible shape change
- can’t function
Low temp. limits the rate of reaction, up to an optimal temp.
