“…where 𝐸 ' is the concentration of free enzymes whose conformation structure is in the native state (i.e., able to carry out the catalysis), 𝑃 is the concentration of product molecules, 𝑆 is concentration of the substrate, 𝐸 ' 𝑆 is concentration of the enzymesubstrate complex, and 𝑘 ( ) , 𝑘 ( * , and 𝑣 +,-are temperature (𝑇) dependent kinetics parameters. Although it is not necessary for 55 the validity of the Michaelis-Menten kinetics (Briggs and Haldane, 1925), for scaling purpose, 𝑣 +,-(the maximum enzymatic catalysis rate) is often assumed to be much greater than 𝑘 ( * (Tang and Riley, 2017;Kooijman, 2009;Holling, 1959;Aksnes and Egge, 1991;Van Slyke and Cullen, 1914). Moreover, throughout this study, we take all variables to be in ISO units.…”
