The validity of the quasi-steady state approximation for the calculation of the rate function of an isolated enzyme reaction is analyzed by a detailed consideration of the time dependent process. For the characterization of the deviations of the real motion from the quasi-stationary state, 3 kinds of error functions are used: the relaxation deficit, the relative relaxation time and the relaxation error. An improved approximation procedure is developed to calculate the transient states of the system. The maximum distance of the original motion from the quasi-stationary states is estimated by a general method. By consideration of different enzyme and substrate concentrations as well as different kinetic constants those parameter regions were determined, where the errors of the quasi-steady state approximation do not exceed tolerated values. The methods can be applied to metabolic pathways.
