There are well-established methods for obtaining the type of inhibition and the value of the inhibition constants from initial-rate kinetics, often from linearized plots such as lineweaver-Burk, Eadie-Hofstee, or Hanes. As these procedures are covered very well by a range of basic textbooks on biochemistry and kinetics (see the list of Suggested Further Reading ) we will not repeat these procedures here. Instead, we will discuss the situation in which an enzyme reaction is followed over more than just the initial range of conversion. Towards this end, the rate equation,... 

In this context, only a brief outline of metabolic engineering can be given and the reader is referred to the Suggested Further Reading section at the end of this chapter.
