Which is a mechanism for norepinephrine destruction?
Norepinephrine is primarily broken down by the enzyme monoamine oxidase (MAO) and catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) in the liver and other tissues. MAO oxidizes norepinephrine into its metabolite, dihydroxyphenylglycol (DHPG), while COMT methylates norepinephrine into normetanephrine.

Monoamine oxidase inhibitors
How do competitive and noncompetitive inhibitors differ in their mechanisms of action and impact on enzyme activity?
Competitive inhibitors compete with the substrate for the enzyme's active site, while noncompetitive inhibitors bind to a different site on the enzyme. Competitive inhibitors can be overcome by increasing substrate concentration, while noncompetitive inhibitors cannot. Both types of inhibitors reduce enzyme activity, but competitive inhibitors specifically affect the binding of the substrate, while noncompetitive inhibitors can alter the enzyme's shape or function.
