enzymatic rate law for irreversible non-modulated non-interacting unireactant enzymes
Van Slyke-Cullen rate law
Rate-law presented in "Donald D. Van Slyke and Glenn E. Cullen. The mode of action of urease and of enzymes in general. J. Biol. Chem., Oct 1914; 19: 141-180". It assumes that the enzymatic reaction occurs as two irreversible steps.E+S -> ES -> E+P. Although of the same form than the Henri-Michaelis-Menten equation, it is semantically different since K now represents the ratio between the production rate and the association rate of the enzyme and the substrate.
