Question
How would cooler temperatures affect Km and Vmax on Michaelis-Menton curve?
Expert Solution
Introduction

Enzymes are a proteinaceous substance that is involved in biochemical reactions/ pathways and behave as biocatalysts by boosting the speed of chemical reactions. Their activity depends upon various environmental factors like Temperature, pH, and Substrate availability. The study of these whole parameters and how enzymes work and/or are influenced owing to these parameters in a chemical reaction is known as enzyme kinetics.
