When calculating Kcat, the concentration units cancel out, so Kcat is expressed in units of inverse time. It is the turnover number – the number of substrate molecule each enzyme site converts to product per unit time. The units of Km are those of concentration i.e. mM, mM or Km is the concentration of substrate at which half maximal velocity is observed.
