Yang and Schulz also formulated a treatment of coupled enzyme reaction kinetics that does not assume an irreversible first reaction. The validity of their theory is confirmed by a model system consisting of enoyl-CoA hydratase (EC 4.2.1.17) and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.35) with 2,4-decadienoyl coenzyme A as a substrate. Unlike the conventional theory, their approach was found to be indispensible for coupled enzyme systems characterized by a first reaction with a small equilibrium constant and/or wherein the coupling enzyme concentration is higher than that of the intermediate. Equations based on their theory can allow one to calculate steady-state velocities of coupled enzyme reactions and to predict the time course of coupled enzyme reactions during the pre-steady state.
