An enzyme catalyzes the following reaction. Which of the following inhibitors would you expect to be competitive inhibitors and which non-competitive inhibitors? Please explain briefly.
Why can we say that having a pure non- competitive inhibitor present is similar to just having less enzyme present?
Explain how the following changes affect the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in the presence of an uncompetitive inhibitor: (a) increasing the substrate concentration at a constant inhibitor concentration, (b) decreasing the inhibitor concentration at a constant substrate concentration.

- The figure displays the relationship between initial rate of product formation and reactant concentration in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction with a fixed amount of enzyme. Which of the following statements best explains the shape of the rate curve at high reactant concentration?arrow_forwardIn a reaction, if the substance concentration equals Km and concentration of inhibitor equals Ki, what would be the degree of inhibition generated by a competitive inhibitor?arrow_forwardWhy might an enzyme’s substrate, transition state, and product all serve as starting points for the design of a competitive inhibitor?arrow_forward
- Determine whether the following statements describe a reversible competitive inhibitor, a reversible noncompetitive inhibitor, or an irreversible inhibitor. Both the inhibitor and the substrate cannot bind to the enzyme at the same time. The structure of the inhibitor is similar to that of the substrate. The addition of more substrate can reverse the inhibitor effect It forms a covalent bond with the active site.arrow_forwardAt what temperature in the above graph is the enzyme the most active?arrow_forwardIndicate whether each of the following statements describes a reversible competitive inhibitor, a reversible noncompetitive inhibitor, or an irreversible inhibitor. More than one answer may apply.a. Both inhibitor and substrate bind at the active site on a random basis.b. The inhibitor effect cannot be reversed by the addition of more substrate.c. Inhibitor structure does not have to resemble substrate structure.d. The inhibitor and substrate can bind to the enzyme simultaneouslyarrow_forward
- A competitive inhibitor competes with substrate for binding to the active site of the enzyme. The enzyme, once bound by the inhibitor, is unable to form product. How would a competitive inhibitor affect the velocity of product formation? Would you need more or less of the substrate to get the same velocity as found before the inhibitor was added?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true for the shown reaction? Substrate level phosphorylation occurs during the reaction Phosphoryl transfer occurs during the reaction Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardDefine the following as they apply to an enzymatic reaction.

- Which effect of which enzyme inhibitor is shown in the graph? Select one: Irreversible mixed Reversible mixed Reversible uncompetitve Reversible competitive Irreversiblearrow_forwardIn general, how would an increase in substrate alter enzyme activity? Draw a graph to illustrate this relationship.arrow_forwardIn noncompetitive inhibition, can both the substrate and the inhibitor bind at the same time? I know the inhibitor changes the enzyme's conformation so it would lower the product formation, but what if the substrate were to bind first, and then the inhibitor binded afterwards?arrow_forward
