Chapter 36, Problem 8P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The advantage of a non-competitive inhibitor as a potential drug in comparison with a competitive inhibitor should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Non-competitive inhibition can be defined as a type of enzyme inhibition. In this inhibition, usually, the inhibitor diminishes the enzyme activity. The inhibitor gets attached to the enzyme in a similar manner as the substrate does. It occurs even if it has been previously bound or not to the substrate.
