Enzymes• Lock and Key Analogy: lock = enzyme, key = substrate.

Enzymes• Lock and Key Analogy: lock = enzyme, key = substrate.

Induced Fit Theory• Enzyme is not rigid, changes shape with substrate.

Enzymes - Cofactors• Coenzymes (contain a vitamin) or metal ion

Enzymes - Cofactors• Metal ions present in trace amounts

Enzymes

Enzymes - Activity• Temperature and pH effect enzyme action

Enzymes - Activity• Temperature and pH effect enzyme action

Enzymes - Activity• Enzyme and substrate concentrations

Enzymes - Inhibitors• Nonspecific - denaturation, pH, temperature

Enzyme Inhibitors• Noncompetitive

Enzyme Inhibitors• Competive - mimic substrate, may block active site, but may

dislodge it.

Enzyme Inhibitors• Competive - mimic substrate, may block active site, but

may dislodge it.

Enzyme Inhibitors

Enzyme Inhibitors• Irreversible - covalently binds to active site

Enzyme Inhibitors• Regulator or feedback - used to control a sequence of reactions - reaction product may block initial enzyme.
