Enzymes Bioenergetics

  1. What is a prosthetic group?
    permanent coenzyme
  2. Which enzymes show sigmoidal action curves?
    Allosteric
  3. Most enzymes show what kind of action curve?
    Hyperbolic
  4. A high Km suggest what?
    • Small affinity for substrate
    • i.e
    • glucokinase
  5. What effect does a competitive inhibitor have on Km?
    • Makes it higher
    • i.e---lowers the affinity of the enzyme for the substrate
  6. What effect does a competitive inhibitor have on Vmax and Km?
    Vmax is the same and Km is increased
  7. Enzyme capable of being competitively inhibited?
    • HMG-Coa reductase
    • inhibitor--crestor, lipitor, lovastatin
  8. What effect does a noncompetitive inhibitor have on Vmax and Km?
    • decreases Vmax
    • unchanged Km
  9. What effect does an uncompetitive inhibitor have on an enzyme?
    • Lowers Km
    • Lowers Vmax
  10. What is a homotropic effector?
    substrate is the effector
  11. What is a heterotropic effector?
    substance other than substrate has an effect on an enzyme
