Key Equations

$$\text{E} + \text{S} \underset{k_{-1}}{\overset{k_1}{\rightleftharpoons}} \text{ES} \overset{k_{\text{cat}}}{\longrightarrow} \text{E} + \text{P}$$
$$[\text{ES}] = \frac{[\text{E}]_T [\text{S}]}{K_m + [\text{S}]}$$
$$v_0 \approx \frac{k_{\text{cat}}}{K_m}[\text{E}]_T[\text{S}]$$
$$\frac{1}{V_{\max}}$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
