Card list

Substrate

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

The reactant an enzyme acts on

Enzyme-Substrate Complex

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

The enzyme plus the substrate bonded together

Active site

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

The restricted region of the enzyme that binds to the substrate.

Induced Fit

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

The process of an enzyme slightly altering its shape to form closer to the substrate

Cofactor

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

Non protein helper for catalytic activity

Competitive Inhibitors

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

Resemble the normal substrate and compete with the substrate for admission to the active site

Non-competitive inhibitors

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

Bind to the enzyme somewhere other than the active site, which alters the enzyme's shape, slowing enzymatic reactions

Allosteric Regulation

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

when a protein's function at one site is effected by the binding of a regulatory molecule at another

Cooperactivity

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

A substrate molecule binding to the active site in a multisubunit enzyme triggers a shape change in all subunits that increases the catalytic activity

Feedback Inhibition

Keyboard commands:

= turn,

= for-/backward,

= scroll

A system where a metabolic pathway is switched off by the inhibitory binding of its end product to an enzyme that acts early in the pathway
