The kinetics of transamination are complicated by the presence of two substrates whose concentrations change appreciably during the course of the reaction. The only previously published account of the kinetics of this system deviates considerably from classical theory. Equations based on premises of Michaelis and Menten have been shown, however, to accommodate the data on reaction rate in relation to substrate concentration obtained with a corn radicle enzyme preparation by a spectrophotometric method.
