Explain how the following mechanisms regulate enzyme activity.(a) Covalent modification (b) Genetic control(c) Allosteric regulation (d) Feedback inhibition
Assume that an inhibitor (I) can bind to an enzyme and is modified by the enzyme. The modified inhibitor (I*) is then permanently associated with the active site of the enzyme, thus inhibiting the enzyme activity. Such inhibitors are called:
Suicide substrates
Transition-state analogs
Both A and B
Neither A nor Bwhich answer choice is correct im confused... thx
“Induced fit” means that when a substrate binds to an enzyme’s active site, (a) it fits perfectly, like a key in a lock (b) the substrate and enzyme undergo conformational changes (c) a site other than the active site undergoes aconformational change (d) the substrate and the enzyme become irreversibly bound to each other (e) c and d

- (a) Lock and key model versus induced fit model of enzyme activity. (b) Competitive and non-competitive enzyme inhibitors. (c) Reversible and irreversible enzyme inhibitors. Answer Allarrow_forwardExamine the figure below, which compares the energetics of a catalyzed and uncatalyzed reaction during the progress of the reaction from substrate (S) to product (P). The highest peak in such a diagram corresponds to the transition state, which is an unstable, high-energy arrangement of substrate atoms that is intermediate between substrate and product. The free energy required to surmount this barrier to the reaction is termed the activation energy. Enzymes function by lowering the activation energy, thereby allowing a more rapid approach to equilibrium.

Using pseudo-steady state hypothesis for various forms of enzyme active sites, obtain relations between rates of individual steps in the mechanism. (b).
