Enzymes (E4) Flashcards
Characteristics of enzymes
Have a temperature optimum (98.6 F)
Have a Ph optimum (7.35-7.45)
Have a rate at which they speed up chemical reactions
Have a specificity of the enzymatic binding site matching the substrate (specificity, size-shape-charge)
Enzymatic binding site inhibitors
Competitive
Non competitive
Suicide
Competitive enzymatic inhibitors
Chemicals compete equally with normal substrate for the enzymatic binding site, when bound prevent the enzymatic reactions (dose dependent- amount of enzymatic inhibition is controlled by the does of competitive inhibitor)
Non competitive enzymatic inhibitors
Chemicals bind more preferentially to the enzymatic inhibition site than normal substrate, when bound prevent enzymatic reactions
Suicide enzymatic inhibitors
Chemical that bind permanently to the enzymatic binding site and stops from ever binding (in all stops enzymatic reactions)
Competitive example
Angiotensin I to angiotensin II goes through ACE inhibitor
Glycolysis to glucose, atps add up until arsenic is present (when present all atp is no longer present)
Non competitive example
Co bind to 200-400x more preferentially to hemoglobin to o2, so it is like a cycle of 3 o2’s and 1 co around Hb-a

Suicide example
(In the liver) -94mV inside and +79mV, enzyme attaches ti liver where 3Na+ leave the leave and 2 kt enter
Best antibiotics are suicide inhibitors
