Cofactor?
Types : Activator (Metal ions) Coenzyme Prosthetic group Functions: - Assist in forming the enzyme-substrate complex - withdraw electrons from the substrate.
OBJECTIVES
At the end of this subtopic, students should able to : Explain the roles and types of inhibitors.

Inhibitor
Usually specific. Work at low concentrations. They block the enzyme but they do not usually destroy it. Many drugs and poisons are inhibitors of enzymes in the nervous system. E.g Nerve gases Cyanide Pesticides

TYPES OF INHIBITORS
Enzyme inhibition may be of two main types: Reversible Inhibition Competitive Inhibitor Noncompetitive Inhibitor Irreversible Inhibition
COMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
Has close structural similarities to the normal substrate. Inhibitor & substrate compete for active site. Bind reversibly to the active site (loosely bind).
COMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
Effect is temporarily to the enzyme. Enzyme can be reused again (do not destroy and do not denatured). Causes No Permanent Damage to the enzyme .

NONCOMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
How do we overcome inhibition of enzymes? competitive
Shape of inhibitor is NOT SIMILAR to the shape of substrate. Inhibitor will DO NOT directly compete with the substrate to bind to the enzyme at the active site.
Reversible by increasing concentration of substrate. It out competes inhibitor for active site on enzyme.
NONCOMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
Allosteric means other site Active site
Substrate cannot fit into the active site
NONCOMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
Inhibitor binds to site other than active site. Allosteric site (Regulatory site)
Allosteric site
Inhibitor fits into allosteric site
NONCOMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
When the inhibitor is present it fits into its site. Causes enzyme (active site) to change shape. (Conformational change).
E
Conformational change
Substrate cannot fit into the active site

NONCOMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
When the inhibitor concentration diminishes the enzymes conformation changes back to its active form.
NONCOMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
NONCOMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
Isoleucine becomes the
allosteric inhibitor of the first step in the pathway. As product accumulates it collides with enzyme more often than substrate does.
NONCOMPETITIVE INHIBITOR
The reaction slows down. When the inhibitor(product:isoleucine) concentration diminishes . Enzymes conformation changes back to its active form. This is NOT COMPETITIVE inhibition but it is REVERSIBLE.
