Competitive
antagonism is
Surmountable.
Antagonism:
Noncompetitive
A = Agonist antagonism is NOT
B = Antagonist surmountable: often
due to irreversible
Binding
Allosteric effects
Allosteric: occur when ligand B
binds to a different
site on the receptor
A = Agonist than agonist A
B = Ligand Either antagonism
or potentiation is
possible
