enzyme kinetics Flashcards

1
Q

in the Vo formule when is Vo =V max?

A

when there is too much substrat, when u add something it will be negligeable

16
Q

why we K cat / Km ?

A

because we can’t decide only looking one we need a ratio

17
Q

the bigger ratio means

A

the higher efficiency

18
Q

Enzyme inhibition can be classed into four types on

A
  • Competitive
  • uncompetitive
  • noncompetitive
  • irreversible Inhibition
19
Q

Irreversible inhibitors (inactivators) react with

A

an enzyme

20
Q

what is his job of the irrerversible inhibitors?

A

One inhibitor molecule can permanently shut off one enzyme molecule

21
Q

therefore, inhibitor bind with the enzyme?

A

covalently

22
Q

but competitive,uncompetitive and non competitive bind?

A

do not form covalently bonds with the enzyme

23
Q

the graphic of MM is?

A

vo and S

24
Q

why is the graphic vo and m,what about enzyme ?

A

because the enzyme concentration is the same

25
Q

what is the purpose of that graphic MM?

A

how the velocity changes with amount of substrate

26
Q

if number of enzyme decreases,Vmax%

A

decreases

27
Q

Kcat represents?

A

( umol substrate converted )/( umol enzyme active site : min-1)

28
Q

Vmax what are the units?

A

s-1

29
Q

what are all the units of the formula?

A

(umol)/(umol` min-1)
