Iodine is not a specific enzyme inhibitor. (Option B)
- Iodine is a non-metallic chemical compound that also acts as a non-specific enzyme inhibitor.
- Iodine is a non-competitive inhibitor. Iodine combines with an enzyme irreversibly.
- Iodine denatures the protein portion in an enzyme which makes its reaction irreversible.
- Non-specific enzyme inhibitors generally denature the protein portion of an enzyme leading to an irreversible change.
