All of the following statements about competitive and non-competitive inhibitors are true EXCEPT:(a) Competitive inhibitors are structurally similar to anenzyme’s substrate and bind to the enzyme’s allostericsite.(b) Competitive inhibitors work by competing with a sub-strate for binding to an enzyme’s active site.(c) Noncompetitive inhibitors can bind at sites other thanthe active site of an enzyme, distorting the tertiary pro-tein structure, which alters the shape of the active site,rendering it ineffective for substrate binding.(d) Some noncompetitive inhibitors bind reversibly whilesome bind irreversibly to their enzyme.(e) b and d.

The fractional saturation of an enzyme is 80% at a substrate concentration of 20 mM. In the presence of 5 mM of a competitive inhibitor the fractional saturation at the same substrate concentration is 40%. The Km for this reaction is mM, and the apparent Km is mM. The value of alpha is while the Ki of the inhibitor is mM.
Which model for enzyme-substrate chemical complementarity is described by the following: Before substrate binding, some enzyme molecules have active sites complementary to substrates and other enzyme molecules have non-complementary active sites. Substrate molecules preferentially bind to the enzyme molecules with complementary active sites. Non-complementary enzyme molecules undergo a structural change to become complementary to maintain conformational equilibrium. a) conformational selection b) induced fit c) lock and key...
It's a three part question based on the chart provided asking: a) Which of these enzymes has the weakest binding of substrate? (I chose fumarase since it has lowest Km but that was wrong so I don't understand) b) Which enzyme has the fastest conversion of ES? (I would assume this means highest Kcat value, so should be catalase) c) Which enzyme is most closely catalytically perfect? (I'm assuming this means highest Kcat/Km ratio, so I was thinking Crotonase, although I don't know what classifies an enzymes as 'catalytically perfect', please explain)

(inhibitor X changes lactase activity to a Vo of 0.10 mM per minute when [S] = 1.0 mM, and a Vo of 0.133333333333 mM per minute when [S] = 2.0 mM) pure non-competitive inhibition uncompetitive inhibition competitive inhibition all of the above none of the above
Consider the Michaelis-Menten equation, below: Vmaz (S V. k + [S] %3D What is the relationship between changes in substrate concentration and velocity when the concentration of substrate, [S), is well below k7 The S terms cancel out in this equation, so there is no effect of changing substrate concentration. The S] term in the numerator is negligible, so there is no impact of changing substrate concentration. Because the enzyme has reached Vr there is no effect of changing substrate concentrations on enzyme velocity. OThe [S term in the denominator is negligible compared to k There is a linear relationship between substrate concentration and velocity.
