additional information
-
additional information the enzymatic in vitro enzyme assay Michaelis-Menten kinetics does not give satisfactory results both for Km and for Vmax as saturation of the enzyme is not reached before the substrate aeroplysinin-1 precipitated at concentrations higher than 36 mM Aplysina cavernicola
