Question
List 4 major types of inhibition modes and clearly indicate the effect on Vmax and KM for each mode?
2. What is the effect of each of the 4 types of inhibitors on the initial rate of
an enzyme catalyzed reaction?
3. A potent inhibitor effectively inhibits an enzyme catalyzed reaction. What
kind of a Ki value you would expect for a potent inhibitor?
4. Considering PNPP → PNP reaction, would you expect to see more intense
or pale color for the reaction that contain the inhibitor? Explain.

Show your work, and be careful about units. b. threo-dihydrosphingosine, a stereoisomer of sphingosine, is an inhibitor of sphingosine kinase. What kind of inhibitor (competitive, uncompetitive, noncompetitive) is threo-dihydrosphingosine? Citing information from the Lineweaver-Burke plots, explain how you can tell.arrow_forward1.

A reaction mixture (200μl) was prepared with the same formula optimized for the enzyme activity assay (0.1 M Tris-HCl ph 8, 0.1 M KCI, 25 mM NaCl, 0.25 mM ATP, and two units of inorganic yeast pyrophosphatase) with 10 µM of the sample molecule. The reaction mixture was incubated for 20 minutes at ambient temperature. Enzymatic reaction was triggered by addition of the substrate B (0.2 mM) and the absorbance of the product was monitored at 290 nm for 10 minutes. Six out of 15 sample molecules showed appreciable inhibition at 10 μM (Figure 5). Three of the molecules, A3, A6, and A7 exhibited more than 50% inhibition of the enzyme activity and were further diluted to find the minimal…arrow_forward
