26
2 ways to plot Enzyme Activity
Michaelis - menten Lineweaver-Burke plot
27
Measurements of enzyme activity or rate of velocity
IU - mmol/minute Katal - mol/second "Conversions: 1IU = 0.0167 Ukat = 16. 7 1 kat = 1.6 IU"
28
Factors that influence enzymatic reaction
pH Temperature Cofactors Inhinitors
29
Noncompetitive inhibitor
Binding site is *allosteric site* Addition of S *no effect* Low Vmax Same Km
30
Competitive inhibition
Binding site is *active site* Addition of S*reverses inhibition* Same Vmax Low Km
31
Uncompetitive inhibition
Binding site is *ES complex* Addition of S *increases the inhibition* Low Vmax and Km
32
Enzyme + Immunoglobulin
Macro enzyme (type 1)
33
Enzyme + no immunoglobulin substance
Macro enzyme (type 2)
34
Enzymes with macro forms
CK AMS LD AST ACP ALP LPS GGT
