Coenzymes
58
Increasing _____ concentration will increase the velocity of an enzymatic reaction in a manner synonymous with increasing substrate concentration.
Coenzyme
59
A particular substance that interferes with enzymatic reactions
Inhibitor
60
A type of inhibitor that physically binds to the active site of an enzyme and compete with the substrate for the active site.
Competitive inhibitor
61
In competitive inhibition, the inhibition is reversible when the inhibitor is (greater/less than) the substrate. Explain.
Less than. The inhibition is reversible because the substrate is more likely than the inhibitor to bind to the active site.
62
Inhibition wherein the inhibitor binds to the ES complex
Uncompetitive inhibition
63
An inhibitor that binds an enzyme at a place other than the active site and may be reversible in that some naturally present metabolic substances combine reversibly with certain enzymes
Noncompetitive inhibitor
64
Explain why noncompetitive inhibtion may be irreversible and why increasing substrate concentration will not reverse the inhibition.
Noncompetitve inhibition may be irreversible when the inhibitor destroys part of the enzymes involved in catalytic activity. Increasing substrate concentration will not reverse the inhibition because the inhibitor binds directly to the enzyme.
65
Km stands for
Michaelis-Menten constant
66
It is an expression of the relationship between the velocity of an enzymatic reaction and substrate concentration
Km
67
Indicates the amount of substrate needed for a particular enzymatic reaction
Km
68
In Competitive inhibition, Km (increased/decreased/was unchanged)
Increased
69
In Noncompetitive inhibition, Km (increased/decreased/was unchanged)
Unchanged
70
In Uncompetitive inhibition, Km (increased/decreased/was unchanged)
Decreased
71
This type of inhibition can be counteracted by adding excess substrate to bind the enzyme.
Competitive inhibition. Reaction will proceed at a slower rate but to the same maximum velocity (Vmax) as an uninhibited reaction.
72
In this type of inhibition, maximum velocity cannot be achieved.
Noncompetitive inhibition
73
When substrate concentration is increased, inhibition is also increased in this type of inhibition. Also, maximum velocity equal to that of an uninhibited reaction cannot be achieved.
Uncompetitive inhibition.
74
A type of inhibition where: Km increased Vmax same with uninhibited reaction
Competitive inhibition
75
A type of inhibition where: Km is unchanged Vmax cannot be achieved
Noncompetitive inhibition
76
A type of inhibition where: Km is decreased Vmax equal to that of an uninhibited reaction cannot be achieved
Uncompetitive inhibition
