Substances that plug up an enzyme's active site are ________.

1 answer:

4 0

I think this should be the enzyme inhibitors. These are molecules that binds to an enzyme and as a result reducing enzyme activity. Enzyme inhibitors may be either competitive or non-competitive depending on their mechanism of action. Enzyme inhibitors prevent the formation of an enzyme-substrate complex and hence prevent the formation of a product. The inhibition may be either reversible or irreversible depending on the specific effect of the inhibitor being used

What is the chemical reaction used to study enzyme activity in the lab (lactase breaking down lactose into its monomers). Know t

Bas_tet [7]

Answer: The chemical reaction in this example is Called hydrolysis in the presence of Lactase

Here is a word equation for the hydrolysis of lactose:

lactose + water → galactose + glucose

Explanation: The equation is called <hydro> + <lysis) of these terms refer to water and splitting respectively. So hydrolysis means splitting with water. Enzymes pull out a monomer by examining where the monomers are connected, and placing a water molecule in between them, resulting in the breakage of the bond between the monomers. Here are two picture to represent it.
