Enzyme Catalysis

AP Biology· difficulty 3/5

A noncompetitive (allosteric) inhibitor

  • A

    Permanently destroys the enzyme by cleaving its peptide bonds

  • B

    Binds an allosteric site, changing enzyme conformation and lowering activity

  • C

    Binds the active site directly, blocking substrate access

  • D

    Speeds the reaction by increasing the enzyme turnover number

Explanation

Allosteric binding alters the enzyme's shape so it can't catalyze effectively. High substrate cannot overcome it.
