The rate of transport of biomolecules via facilitated diffusion can be estimated using approaches
analogous to Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetics. The graph below is the result of an experiment
that measures the rate of a molecule (L) through a membrane bilayer. Estimate a value for K T -
the concentration of L necessary for transport to reach one-half of its maximal rate. Explain your
estimate.
