Which risk increases when an enzyme exceeds saturation kinetics?

💡 Explanation

Substrate accumulation risks inhibitory effects, because high [S] overwhelms enzyme active sites with saturation. The Michaelis-Menten kinetics no longer hold linearly; therefore the outcome is substrate inhibition, rather than a constant reaction increase or fluctuation.
