The compounds were all determined to bind in the active site as competitive inhibitors of acetyl-CoA. Because they bind as competitive inhibitors, all three inhibitors must exhibit structural similarity to some part of acetyl-CoA. Look up in the textbook the structural formu- las for Coenzyme A, ATP, and NADH. What is the largest structural fragment of each inhibitor that is responsible for competitive inhibition?
