What happens when a protein is inhibited?
When a enzyme is inhibited (many proteins are enzymes), it just means that the enzyme will be reduced in its ability to catalyze a reaction. There are a few types of Inhibition like Competitive Inhibition, Noncompetitive Inhibition, and Irreversible Inhibition.
Why does adding additional substrate overcome competitive but not noncompetitive inhibition?
A competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate to bind to the active site while a noncompetitive inhibitor binds to an allosteric site of the enzyme (one other than the active site). Thus no amount of substrate can overcome or in a sense interfere with the inhibitors binding to an allosteric site.
Is lactose a noncompetitive inhibitor?
yes
What kind of inhibitor is cyanide?
Noncompetitive inhibitor.
Do noncompetitive inhibitors bind to the active site?
A non-competitive inhibitor
Which type of control agent exerts noncompetitive inhibition?
Protein kinase and Allosteric effector

Inhibition of cellular enzymes could potnetially lead to?
inhibition of cellular enzymes could potentially lead to?
The absence or inhibition of AChE at a synapse would lead to?
The absence or inhibition of AChE at a synapse would lead to flaccid paralysis.
A noncompetitive inhibitor has a structure that?
A noncompetitive inhibitor has a structure that does not resemble the substrate structure. A compound that binds to the surface of an enzyme, and changes its shape so that a substrate cannot enter the active site is called a noncompetitive inhibitor.
Why does adding additional substrate overcome competitive but not noncompetitive inhibition?
A competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate to bind to the active site while a noncompetitive inhibitor binds to an allosteric site of the enzyme (one other than the active site). Thus no amount of substrate can overcome or in a sense interfere with the inhibitors binding to an allosteric site.
Why is ACTH elevated in Addisons disease?
The steroid hormones produced by the adrenal cortex exhibit feedback inhibition on ACTH production, therefore a low concentration of corticosteroids (as seen in Addisons disease) will not exhibit this feedback inhibition. Without this inhibition, ACTH levels are not regulated and therefore rise.
Is lactose a noncompetitive inhibitor?
yes
What kind of inhibitor is cyanide?
Noncompetitive inhibitor.
How do competitive and noncompetitive inhibitions differ?
A competitive inhibitor often binds to an enzyme's active site. Noncompetitive inhibitors usually bind to a different site on the enzyme.
The __ process is a noncompetitive application process?
open admission
What scholarship is noncompetitive with no requirements?
A merit based scholarship
