The steps 1, 2 and 3 (in red) represent the catalytic cycle and the steps 4 and 5 (in black) denote LiP inactivation via LiPIII and step 6 (in blue) represent the mitigation of LiP inactivation in the presence of VA. (adapted from Mao et al.2010) Results and Discussion 13 14 Enzymatic reaction kinetics 15 The Michaelis-Menten equation shows the relationship between initial velocity of 16 enzymatic reaction and substrate concentration (Fig. SM-2.A). The simplified form can be 17 described as: 18 V V max [ S ] , m [ S ] 19 where V is the initial reaction rate for each initial substrate concentration and Km is the substrate’s 20 Michaelis constant, Vmax corresponds to the maximum reaction rate which can be achieved when 21 substrate concentration is sufficiently to saturate all available enzymes. Usually, the conversion 22 form of Michaelis-Menten equation, the Lineweaver-Burk equation: 23 1 m 1 1 , V V max [ S ] V max 3 1 is applied to derive K m and Vmax. 1/V plot of 1/[S], obtained a straight line (Fig. SM-2.B). 2 The absolute value of straight line intercept with the x-axis was 1/K m ; and 1/Vmax was 3 straight line intercept with the y-axis. 4 5 Fig. SM-2: 6 (A) 0.45 0.4 0.35 Rate, nM/s 0.3 0.25 0.2 0.15 0.1 0.05 0 0 100 200 300 400 500 BDE15 Concentration, nM 7 (B) 16 14 y = 1515.x + 2.114 12 1/v 10 8 6 y = 497.5x + 1.739 4 2 0 -0.01 -0.005 -2 0 -4 0.005 0.01 1/s 8 4 0.015 0.02 1 Fig. SM-2.
