Cells regulate metabolic pathways by controlling the _____ produced. a) ________ of enzymes
b) ___________ of enzymes c) ______ levels of enzymes
as substrate/enzyme levels increase, the rxn rate increases until active sites of all enzymesare being continuously occupied by a new substrate
Genes that code for enzymes can turn ________________(i.e. marathon runners after high-carb pre-competition meals)
Some enzymes only synthesized at ________________________in organisms life (65% of ppl produce less lactase as they age)
inactive forms of enzymes only become ________________when needed (i.e. protein digesting enzymes pepsin & trypsin)
Competitive or Noncompetitive Inhibition Enzyme Control
Enzymes need to be ______________________at times to prevent 1) substrates from being used up 2) producing too much product
__________________inhibition: a substance, other than the enzyme’s normal substrate, ______________________of enzyme & competes with the actual substrate for active site)
- structural similarities
