The effects of competing alternative substrates on the rate of uptake by galactoside/proton symport were investigated. These experiments produced a decrease in apparent maximum velocity with increased alternative-substrate concentration that cannot be accounted for by a simple ordered mechanism. This, together with non-linearities in the variation of the apparent kinetic constants with alternative-substrate concentration, can be accounted for by a random mechanism for galactoside and proton binding.
