title: The use of steady-state rate equations to analyse progress curve data.
abstract: Analysis of progress curves for enzyme-catalyzed reactions has been made by using a procedure that does not require the derivation of complex integrated rate equations. The method involves conversion of progress curve data to reaction velocities that are then fitted to the appropriate differential rate equation. Application of the procedure to data obtained for the reaction catalyzed by aspartate aminotransferase (L-aspartate:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, EC 2.6.1.1), showed that the resulting values for the kinetic parameters agreed well with those obtained by conventional progress curve analysis (Duggleby, R.G. and Morrison, J.F. (1978) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 526, 398--409).
