Question
Chapter 3, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the increase in the total activity to a value more than that is present in the original crude extract during purification of an enzyme should be determined.
Concept introduction:
A peptide bond is present between the two amino acids in a protein. During the formation of a peptide bond, a molecule of water is released. The amino group of an amino acid gets associated with the carboxyl group of another. Polypeptides and proteins are the chains formed by the amino acids.

- multiple choice, choose the correct answer You stumble upon a potential inhibitor (I) for HIV protease, so you now have to perform a few experiments to characterize its behaviour. You find that if you add an excess of substrate to the reaction in the presence of inhibitor, enzyme activity increases but to only 0.5 Vmax to that observed in the absence of inhibitor. The affinity of the substrate for the enzyme is unaffected by the inhibitor. If you treated the enzyme with inhibitor, then dialyse the protein into a buffer solution without inhibitor, the activity is restored. What type of inhibitor is I?1. Uncompetitive2. Competitive3. Non-competitive 4.
