EI /EIS
[S] > NO affect

37
Q

What happens to Km and Vmax with a competitve inhibitor

A

Vmax same

Km change

38
Q

What happens to Km and Vmax with a non competitive inhibitor

A

Vmax change

Km same

39
Q

competitive examples

A
REVERSIBLE
Methotrexate
Ibuprofen
NON REVERSIBLE
Aspirin
40
Q

How do Aspirin and Ibuprofen work?

A

> Inhibit prostaglandis synthesis

>competitively inhibiting COX-1 COX-2

41
Q

How does Methotrexate work

A

> Similar structure to Dihydrofolate> DNA + RNA
Bind to AS
inflammation (low)
cancer (high)

42
Q

Example of non competitive inhibitor

A

> Alanine

43
Q

How does alanine work?

A

> inhibits Pyruvate kinase
-ve feed back
Pyruvate kinase catalyses pyruvate phosphoenol pyruvate to pyruvate which is converted to to alanine

44
Q

What do IC50 values measure?

A

The inhibitor conc that r`educes enzyme activity by 50%

45
Q

What does a low IC50 mean

A

> better inhibitor> less moles needed to inhibit

46
