Can enzyme activity be affected by salinity and inhibitors?

There are a number of compounds that reduces the activity of an enzyme. These include competitive inhibitors, non-competitive inhibitors and uncompetitive inhibitors.

As the name implies these inhibitors inhibit enzyme activity. Possibly part of a negative feedback loop.

The presence of inhibitors or activators will definitely affect enzyme activity. The enzyme activity is sensitive to the presence of most substances.

The inhibitors get the white blood cells,and make red blood cells.Doing this helps the enzyme activity.

Enzyme activity is affected by other molecules, temperature, chemical environment (e.g., pH), and the concentration of substrate and enzyme. Activators are molecules that encourage enzyme activity, and inhibitors are enzymes that decrease enzyme activity. Sometimes a cofactor is necessary for the enzyme to work.

Either at an inhibition site, or in the active site, inhibitors temporarily stop enzyme function.

activators; inhibitors

Answer What does inhibitor do to enzyme activity? They prevent the reactions from happening. Non-competative inhibitors alter the shape of the active site so that the substrate no longer fits, and competative inhibitors block the active site.

Inhibitors are substances that alter the activity of enzymes by combining with them in a way that influence the binding of substrate and/or its turnover number. Many inhibitors are substances that structurally resemble their enzyme's substrate but either do not react or react very slowly compared to substrate. There are two kinds of inhibitors: a) competitive inhibitors (those compete directly with a normal substrate for an enzyme-binding site), and b) uncompetitive inhibitors (these bind directly… Read More

enzyme activity within the metabolic pathways

temperature, pH, presence of inhibitors

Enzyme inhibitors are molecules that bind to enzymes and decrease their activity. The binding of an inhibitor can stop a substrate from entering the enzyme's active site and/or hinder the enzyme from catalyzing its reaction. Inhibitor binding is either reversible or irreversible. Irreversible inhibitors usually react with the enzyme and change it chemically. These inhibitors modify key amino acid residues needed for enzymatic activity. In contrast, reversible inhibitors bind non-covalently and different types of inhibition… Read More

Enzyme activity sometimes reflects the amount of protein expressed in a cell--however, due to enzyme inhibitors, the enzyme activity is not always reflective of the amount of protein expressed by a cell.

Competitive inhibitors.

temperature, activators, PH levels, and inhibitors

Following are the factors affectingenzymes: Salinity Temperature Inhibitors Allosteric factors pH level Substate concentration Catalyst Enzyme concentration

Competitive inhibitors reduce enzyme activity by binding (in competition with the enzyme's substrate) to the active site. These inhibitors may be reversible or irreversible. With reversible inhibitors, which may release the enzyme, concentrations much higher than the concentration of the substrate would be required to completely block enzyme activity, and even then one or two reactions may take place over long periods of time. With irreversible inhibitors, which permanently attach to the enzyme, enzyme activity… Read More

Enzymes are regulated by controlling the level of transcription for them as well as inhibition. Inhibition is when a compound or protein physically contacts the enzyme and reduces activity. It can block the active sight or bind allosterically and reduce activity. Some inhibitors are not for regulation but compounds from outside of the organism. Many poisons are inhibitors of crucial enzyme activity.

yes, they are affected by pH and temperature:D

yes because a non competitive inhibitors can stop the enzyme..

Cholinesterase inhibitors are drugs that block the activity of an enzyme in the brain called cholinesterase. Cholinesterase breaks apart the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is vital for the transmission of nerve impulses.

temperature, pH, substrate concentration, and the presence or absence of inhibitors.

Inhibition by the use of inhibitors (reduces activity of enzymes) =)

Take for instance you have added an irreversible inhibitor to a sample of enzyme and substrate, the reaction will stop completely. thus the enzyme is inactive at this point the way to regain the activity of this enzyme is to add new enzyme. Because they bind directly to the active site by covalent bonds, irreversible inhibitors permanently render an enzyme inactive. Some drugs are irreversible inhibitors, including the antibiotic penicillin (which inhibits an enzyme involved… Read More

aside from pH and temperature, another factors include: Concentration of the substrate (less substrate, less activity) Concentration of the enzyme (less enzyme, less activity) Presence of Inhibitors Presence/Concentration of Coenzymes Rate of Enzyme production (less production, less activity)

The activity of the enzyme is affected by pH! yuh welcome!

Temperature, pH, cofactors, substrate and enzyme concentration, Inhibitors (competitive and non- competitive) Allosteric enzyme and negative feedback mechanism e.g. in metabolic pathways

They use inhibitors which can either be competitive or non-competitive. This essentially turns the enzyme on and off.

An inhibitor is a substance added in a system with the goal to decrease the rate of reaction. Example: inhibitors added to decrease the rate of corrosion, inhibitors in drugs the decease the activity of an enzyme, etc.

Temperature Below optimum point (usually 37 to 40C) not much kinetic energy thus less collision will happen, above it protein enzymes will be denatured by the rigorous molecular motions, thus ionic and hydrogen bonds that hold the 3 dimensional shape of enzymes are disrupted. pH Too much acidity or if the enzyme environment is too basic, intra and intermolecular bonds that holds the enzyme's 3 dimensional shape will be disrupted, thus denaturing the enzyme, and… Read More

They are inhibitors of the enzyme monoamine oxidase B

an allosteric enzyme

They are also called Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors

Increasing the temperature excessively - if an enzyme is heated too much (usually around 40°C) the enzyme will become denatured. This will prevent it from working permanently. Decreasing the temperature - decreases enzyme activity Enzyme inhibitors - heavy metals poison enzymes by binding to the active site, preventing the enzyme from binding to the substrate molecule.

The competitive inhibitors bind in the active site while noncompetitive inhibitors bind at an allosteric site, which is located somewhere else on the enzyme other than the active site.

Many poisons are enzyme inhibitors. Infamously, nerve gases function by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which normally breaks down acetylcholine in peripheral and autonomic nervous junctions.

Change in temp, pH, and salinity.

4. The activity of an enzyme is affected by pH

Temperature, activators, pH levels and inhibitors. For more info, check the link under the related links section.

They also called ACE inhibitors

The activity of an enzyme is affected by temperature, pH and the concentration of the substrate.

Temperature - too cold the enzyme will still work but slowly, too hot and the enzyme will become denatured pH - different types of enzymes work best in different pH environments enzyme and substrate concentration - how many there is of each. eg. too many enzymes etcetera. enzyme inhibitors

the precise location on the enzyme to which they bind

Enzyme Inhibitors

Ace inhibitors or angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors block an enzyme which narrows blood vessels and and reduces blood pressure. Some are combined with a diuretic. Benazepril, captrolil, and enalpril are some of the generics.

Bernard Randall Baker has written: 'Design of active-site-directed irreversible enzyme inhibitors' -- subject(s): Enzyme inhibitors

Anti enzymes or enzyme inhibitors, are substances which inhibit counteracts the action of an enzyme.

In biological chemical reactions, examples of these are called enzyme inhibitors. Enzymes speed up reactions, but enzyme inhibitors slow them down. This can be by either competing with the reactants for a spot on the enzyme, or by altering the enzyme's structure so that it does not speed up reactions anymore. In either case, enzyme inhibitors slow down chemical reactions.

all inhibitors prevent the active site from binding to a substrate and causes enzymes to lose catalytic activity
