Chapter 9, Problem 10P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The enzyme that will most effectively inhibit by the given molecule A is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The organic compounds that contain amine $\left({\text{-NH}}_{\text{2}}\right)$ and carboxyl $\left(\text{-COOH}\right)$ functional groups with a side chain $\left(\text{-R}\right)$ are known as amino acids. Amino acids consist of both positive as well negative groups in their structure and are called as ampholytes.

The biological catalysts which lower the minimum amount of energy required by the reactants to convert into product are known as enzymes. An enzyme does not alter the potential energy of reactant and product.
