How do you use inhibitor in a sentence?
An enzyme inhibitor is a substance that binds to an enzyme and decreases the enzyme's activity.
When the noncompetitive inhibitor is bonded to the enzyme?
The shape of the active site is distorted.
Which blocks enzyme activity by binding to the site of an enzyme?
inhibitor
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.
Blocks the action of the enzyme that causes the blood vessels to contract resulting in hypertension?
ACE inhibitor
What is Lotensin?
It is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor
What is an enzyme inhibitor that isn't a heavy metal?
Ricin
What is benazepril?
It is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor
What is Capoten?
It is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor
What is captopril?
It is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor
What happens to the vmax when a competitive reversible inhibitor is added to an enzyme?
The vmax stays the same as the competitive reversible inhibitor does not affect catalysis in the enzyme-substrate.
Why would the reaction of a normal rate of an enzyme slow down and its substrate slow down when a competitive inhibitor is present?
because the competitive inhibitor stops the regular substrate from joining the enzyme. Its takes its place in the enzyme.
