1. A (n)Blank inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate.target 1 of 6

Question

2. A (n)Blank inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme that is not the active site.target 2 of 6
3. Usually, a(n) Blank inhibitor forms a covalent bond with an amino acid side group within the active site, which prevents the substrate from entering the active site or prevents catalytic activity.target 3 of 6
4. The competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for the Blank on the enzyme.target 4 of 6
5. When the noncompetitive inhibitor is bonded to the enzyme, the shape of the Blank is distorted.target 5 of 6
6. Enzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its Blank

Answer 1

1. A competitive inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate.

2. A noncompetitive inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme that is not the active site.

3. Usually, a(n) irreversible inhibitor forms a covalent bond with an amino acid side group within the active site, which prevents the substrate from entering the active site or prevents catalytic activity.

4. The competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for the active site on the enzyme.

5. When the noncompetitive inhibitor is bonded to the enzyme, the shape of the enzyme is distorted.

6. Enzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its substrate.
