Single enzyme irreversible Michaelis-Menten Eqs for Hx->Xa->Ua: Progress curves for xanthine oxidase reactions to oxidize hypoxanthine, Hx, to xanthine, Xa, to uric acid, Ua
Description
Unidirectional fluxes Hx to Xa to Ua are facilitated by a single enzyme, Xanthine Oxidase (EC# 1.7.3.2), in a hyperoxic medium at pH 8, so it is oxidative. Equations are Michaelis-Menten. The strategy is to have two models operating simultaneously, the first one to fit the data of Fig 4 (Hx->xa->Ua) Escribano88, and the second to fit the data of Fig 5(Xa->Ua). Both models use the identical parameters, The optimizer minimizes the RMS error for five (5) data curves at once, thereby providing an overall best estimate of the parameters. This strategy maximizes the ratio of data to parameters and narrows the confidence limits on the parameters.
