What roles do proximity and orientation play in enzymatic catalysis?
When studying the mechanism of the enzymatic reaction, functional groups were found that ensure the connection of the enzyme molecule with the substrate and take a direct part in the act of catalysis. What are these areas of the enzyme formed by these groups called? What functional structures form them and why?
All of the following statements about competitive and non-competitive inhibitors are true EXCEPT:(a) Competitive inhibitors are structurally similar to anenzyme’s substrate and bind to the enzyme’s allostericsite.(b) Competitive inhibitors work by competing with a sub-strate for binding to an enzyme’s active site.(c) Noncompetitive inhibitors can bind at sites other thanthe active site of an enzyme, distorting the tertiary pro-tein structure, which alters the shape of the active site,rendering it ineffective for substrate binding.(d) Some noncompetitive inhibitors bind reversibly whilesome bind irreversibly to their enzyme.(e) b and d.
