Hormone substrate concentration affects the velocity of enzymatic action. This is based upon the following:
The Michaelis-Menten equation illustrates in mathematical terms the relationship between initial reaction velocity vi and substrate concentration . Vi=Vmax /Km+ The Michaelis constant Km is the substrate concentration at which vi is half the maximal velocity (Vmax/2) attainable at a paicular concentration of the enzyme.
