For competition to occur, the environment somehow must be limiting (i.e., there must be something to compete for)

The joining of carbon dioxide to RuBP occurs in the?

The joining of carbon dioxide to RuBP occurs in the Calvin cycle, specifically in the enzyme-mediated step called carbon fixation. This process is catalyzed by the enzyme RuBisCO (ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase).


The distortion of enzyme molecules which occurs at high temperatures is known as?

Denatured


Which of the following occurs as an enzyme produced by a cell is secreted from the cell?

The enzyme is synthesized in the cell's ribosomes, packaged into vesicles by the Golgi apparatus, and then released from the cell through exocytosis.


What is the type of enzyme inhibition in which the Km changes but the Vmax does not?

Non-competitive inhibition. This type of inhibition occurs when the inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme that is different from the active site, causing a conformational change in the enzyme and affecting its ability to bind substrate. The inhibitor can bind to both the free enzyme and the enzyme-substrate complex with equal affinity.


What is the difference between allosteric inhibition and competitive inhibition in enzyme regulation?

Allosteric inhibition occurs when a molecule binds to a site on an enzyme that is not the active site, causing a change in the enzyme's shape and reducing its activity. Competitive inhibition, on the other hand, happens when a molecule competes with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme, blocking the substrate from binding and inhibiting the enzyme's function.

Why is enzyme competition so important to all cells?

Enzyme competition is important because it regulates the activity of enzymes within cells, ensuring that resources are efficiently utilized. This competition helps maintain balance in enzyme-catalyzed reactions, preventing one enzyme from dominating and causing disruption to cellular processes. Ultimately, enzyme competition is crucial for maintaining overall metabolic stability and function in cells.

Why are enzymes three dimensional shape so important?

An enzyme's three dimension shape is important to the binding that occurs between the enzyme itself and its specific substrate, forming the enzyme-substrate complex. In order for the enzyme to create a reaction it is important that the shape of the enzyme binds the substrate to the active site where the chemical reaction occurs. One other thing to consider is the shape that the enzyme takes that allows only its specific substrate to bind and not any other molecule.
