Q

what happens to enzymatic reaction if there is high enzyme concentration

A

enzymatic reaction us faster because more enzyme is present to bind with the substrate

Q

(true or flase) with the amount of enzyme exceeding the amount of substrate, the reaction rate steadily decreases as more substrate is added

16
Q

example of activators

A

calcium
zinc
Chloride
magnesium
potassium

17
Q

inorganic ions attached to a molecule

A

Metalloenzymes

18
Q

example of metalloenzymes

A

catalase
cytochrome oxidase

19
Q

Enzymatic reactions may not progress if this interferes with the reaction

A

Inhibitors

20
Q

Examples of inhibitors

A

Competitive inhibitor
non-competitive inhibitor
uncompetitive inhibitor

21
Q

it physically binds to the active site of an enzyme

A

Competitive Inhibitor

22
Q

(true or false) in competitive inhibitor, both the substrateand inhibitor compete for the same active site of the enzyme

23
Q

competitive inhibitor type of inhibition

A

reversible
substrates concentration is significantly higher than the concentration of inhibitor

24
Q

the effect of competitive inhibitor can be counteracted by adding

A

excess substrate to bind with the enzyme

25
this results in reduction in the concentration of competitive inhibitor , thus increasing the rate of reaction
dilution of serum
26
competitive inhibitor has the ability to alter
michaelis-menten constant (Km)
27
it does not compete with the substrate but look for areas other than the active site
non-competitive inhibitor
