Q
What causes the M+1 Peak in a mass spectrometer?
A
The presence of carbon 13 isotope
4
Q
What is an enzyme inhibitor
A
A molecule that binds to the substrate of an enzymes active site to limit it’s activity. It becomes competitive when the inhibitor binds to the active site of the enzyme so that another cannot fit to it

A
Enzyme + substrate (E)
Enzyme in the substrate (ES)
Enzyme-product complex (EP)
Enzyme (E)
