Question

Match the most appropriate inhibitor type with each statement. Inhibitor types can be used more than once. (2 pts each). A) mixed-type inhibitor B) uncompetitive inhibitor C) noncompetitive inhibitor D) competitive inhibitor irreversible inhibitor 1. Vmax may be permanently decreased when this molecule binds covalently in the active site of an enzyme. 2. Always decreases the Vmax of an enzyme catalyzed reaction, while also always decreasing the KM. 3. An intersection of the lines with and without Inhibitor) on the x-axis of a Lineweaver-Burke plot is indicative of this type of inhibitor.

Explanation / Answer

1) Vmax permanently reduced can be caused by irreversible inhibitor that is option E.

2) Both km and Vmax reduced caused by uncompetitive inhibition that is Option B.

3) An intersection of the lines with and without inhibitor on X axis caused by non competitive inhibitor that is option C
