Answer:
The correct option is C. It changes the three-dimensional structure of the active site so that ALAD is no longer compatible with its substrate.
Explanation:
Co-factors are molecules that are required by an enzyme to perform its function of catalysis. If a wrong co-factor binds to the enzyme then it will change the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme and the substrate will no longer fit into the enzyme. Hence, Option C is the best choice that explains the inhibition of ALAD.
Other options are false because :
Option A: The wrong co factor will not affect the substrate nor will it make it compatible for ALAD's active site.
Option B: The wrong factor doesn't change the amino acid sequence of the protein or enzyme, rather it changes the three dimensional structure of the enzyme.
Option D : The wrong co factor won't allow the reaction to proceed at a faster rate, rather it will inhibit the reaction.
I believe that its False, but don't hold me to that
It’s is B i took the test
