4 enzymes Flashcards
1
Q
enzymes
A
increase the rate of the chemical reaction
2
Q
substrates
A
bind to the active site to initiate product conversion
- can undergo catabolic or anabolic rxns
3
Q
rate of enzymatic reaction depends on 7 factors:
A
temp
pH
conc. of enzyme
conc. of substrate
conc. of cofactors
activators
inhibitors
4
Q
competitive inhibitor
A
interferes at active site so substrate can’t bind
5
Q
non competitive inhibitors
A
changes shape of enzyme so it can’t bind
6
Q
sucrase
A
it’s substrate is sucrose
7
Q
a denatured enzyme
A
has had it’s shape altered or affected
