Enzymatic Mpemba Effect: Slowing of biochemical reactions by increasing enzyme concentration
Increasing the enzyme concentration generally speeds up enzymatic reactions. However, in this Letter, we show that increasing the enzyme concentration can also slow down the enzymatic reaction. We consider a simple allosteric protein with multiple modification sites, catalyzed by two enzymes with th…
