1
Q

What does competitive inhibitor affect? How does it change?

A

Km but not Vmax

Km increases

2
Q

competitive inhibitor

A

the compound is similar to substrate and compete for the sams site

3
Q

In presence of competitive inhibitor, what could be done to overcome effect of this inhibitor?

A

increase the substrate concentrations

4
Q

uncompetitve inhibitor

A

inhibitor binds to site other than the substrate binding pocket only when the substrate is present

5
Q

noncompetitve inhibitor

A

the inhibitor bind to other site than substrate binding pocket whether substrate is present or not

6
Q

what does uncompetitive inhibitor affect?

A

affect both Vmax and Km

7
Q

What does noncompetitve inhibitor affect( in pure and mixed inhibition)

A

Vmax decrease but Km stays the same (in pure)

Km increases and Vmax decreases (in mixed)

8
Q

What does noncompetitve inhibitor can bind?

“pure” noncompetitve inhibitor

A

free E or ES complex

if binds free E and ES same

9
Q

What does uncompetitive inhibitor bind? competitive inhibitor?

A

only ES complex

only E (enzyme acive site)

10
Q

What does K(i) measure? Its equation?

A

measure affinity btw enzyme and inhibitor

[E][I]/ [EI]

11
Q

K(m) increases mean that??

A

the substrate concentration also increase to reach the same vmax/2
