Suicide substrates are molecules that resemble the substrate. When these molecules enter into the active site, they form a covalent bond with the enzyme, thereby permanently inhibiting it. These molecules have been used to label the amino acid side chains that are involved in the catalytic reaction occurring within the active site. This is usually accomplished by hydrolyzing the inhibited enzyme. How could an investigator identify the amino acid bound to the suicide substrate molecule?
