Question

What is Enzyme inhibition? Discuss reversible & irreversible ezyme inhibition.

Answer 1

An enzyme inhibitor is a molecule that binds to an enzyme and decreases its activity. Since blocking an enzyme's activity can kill a pathogen or correct a metabolic imbalance, many drugs are enzyme inhibitors. They are also used in pesticides.

Unlike an irreversible inhibitor, a reversible inhibitor can dissociate from the enzyme. Reversible inhibitors include competitive inhibitors and noncompetitive inhibitors. ... But because the binding is reversible, some substrate molecules will eventually bind to the active site and be converted to product....
