Abstract
1. The effect of the interaction between the charged matrix and substrate on the kinetic behaviour of bound enzymes was investigated theoretically. 2. Simple expression is derived for the apparent Km. 3. The apparent Km can only be used for the characterization of the electrostatic effect of the ionic strength does not vary with the substrate concentration. 4. The deviations from Michaelis-Menton kinetics are graphically illustrated for cases when the ionic strength varies with the substrate concentration. 5. The inhibition of the bound enzyme by a charged inhibitor at constant ionic strength is characterized by an apparent Ki. 6. When both the inhibitor concentration and the ionic strength change there is no apparent Ki, and the inhibition profile is graphically illustrated for this case. 7. Under certain conditions the electrostatic effects manifest thenselves in a sigmoidal dependence of the enzyme activity on the concentration of the substrate or inhibitor.
