Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The ATP (adenosine triphosphate) production is vital for the functioning of the various systems and biochemical processes in the cell. The ATP can be generated through aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Several metabolic pathways such as glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport chain, alcohol fermentation and so on, generate ATP to power up the succeeding process.

Which of the following is characteristic of competitive inhibitors? the inhibitor could bind to the active site or to an allosteric site on the enzyme. the enzyme will mistake the inhibitor for its substrate, so that the inhibitor will end up covalently bound to the enzyme. the inhibitor can bind only AFTER the substrate has bound (i.e. it binds only to the ES complex). the inhibitor can bind reversibly at the substrate-binding site (the active site). the inhibitor will lower the characteristic Vmax of the enzyme.
Classify the inhibitor characteristics according to one of three types of inhibition: reversible competitive, reversible noncompetitive, or irreversible. Reversible competitive inhibitor binds noncovalently at site other than active site 0° Reversible noncompetitive inhibitor structure resembles substrate structure inhibitor does not alter the maximum reaction rate Irreversible inhibitor binds.covalently and permanently at site other than active site
Which of the following are characteristics of catabolic metabolic pathways? (Choose all correct answers). Overall oxidation of initial substrates so redox reactions involve use of NAD+ as oxidizing agent, converted to NADH. Large initial substrates are broken down to smaller final products. Overall reduction of intial substrates so redox reactions involve use of NADPH as reducing agent, converted to NADP+. The pathways are overall exergonic (negative delta G). Net production of ATP as a result of the pathway. Essentially irreversible
