Q

What are the two types of inhibitors

A

Competitive and non competitive

24
Q

How does a competitive inhibitor work?

A

Resembles the substrate (external regulation)

25
Q

Why does a competitive inhibitor bind at the active site?

A

To block the substrate access

26
Q

How does a competitive inhibitor decrease enzyme activity?

A

It blocks it

27
Q

How does a no competitive inhibitor work?

A

Doesn’t resemble the substrate (internal regulation)

28
Q

Where does a non competitive inhibitor bind? Why does it bind here?

A

At the allocate tic site causing the active site to change shape

29
Q

What effect does inhibitor binding to the allosteric site have on the active site?

A

Changes shape so substrate can no longer bind

30
Q

In feedback inhibition what does the inhibiting?

A

The final product of a biochemical pathway

31
Q

How does the inhibitor work?

A

To prevent its own production

32
Q

What effect does saturation have on enzyme activity?

A

As you increase s.c. More products can be generated

33
Q

What does saturation mean?

A

Refers to having more substrates than available active sites

34
Q

What is the overall balanced chemical equation for aerobic respiration?

A

6⃣O2+C6H12O6-> 6⃣CO2+6⃣H2O

35
Q

What is the role of feedback inhibition inside cells?

A

To plateau

36

39
Q

What is the overall balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis
