A biochemist is studying a newly discovered enzyme. They observe that as the substrate concentration increases, the reaction rate initially increases rapidly but then plateaus. This plateau indicates that the enzyme has reached its maximum velocity (Vmax?), which is defined as:

  • The substrate concentration at which the reaction rate is half of Vmax?
  • The initial rate of reaction
  • The reaction rate when all enzyme active sites are saturated with substrate
  • The point at which the enzyme begins to denature
