Steady state kinetics of enzymes with substrates having multiple reaction sites.
An enzyme catalysing the reaction of a substrate with multiple reaction sites may display steady state kinetics described by a Michaels-Menten equation. The Km is identical for all sites considered individually and all sites together. The maximum velocity for a single site depends on the rate constants for reaction at that site and at all of other sites.
