Study Notes
Mixed Noncompetitive Inhibition
- Similar to noncompetitive inhibition, but the inhibitor binding affects substrate binding and vice versa.
- Dissociation constants KI and K′I are not identical.
- Vmax is still lowered.
Lineweaver-Burk Plot for Noncompetitive Inhibition
- Slope and y-intercept change.
- x-intercept remains unchanged.
Lineweaver-Burk Plot for Mixed Noncompetitive Inhibition
- Slope and y-intercept change.
- x-intercept changes.
Mixed Noncompetitive Inhibition
- Vmax decreases.
- KM increases or decreases.
Mixed Noncompetitive Inhibition
- Similar to noncompetitive inhibition, but differs in that the inhibitor affects the binding of the substrate and vice versa.
- The dissociation constants for the inhibitor, KI and KI', are not identical.
- Mixed noncompetitive inhibition still lowers the maximum velocity (Vmax) of the reaction.
Lineweaver–Burk Plot for Mixed Noncompetitive Inhibition
- The slope and y-intercept of the Lineweaver-Burk plot change, while the x-intercept also changes.
- The equation for the Lineweaver-Burk plot under mixed noncompetitive inhibition is: 1/V = (1 + [I]/KI')/Vmax * 1/[S] + (1 + [I]/KI)/Vmax.
Identifying a Mixed Noncompetitive Inhibitor
- The Lineweaver-Burk equation for the uninhibited reaction is: 1/V = KM/Vmax * 1/[S] + 1/Vmax.
- Substitute the modified value of Vmax from the mixed noncompetitive inhibition equation into the Lineweaver-Burk equation to identify a mixed noncompetitive inhibitor.
Mixed Noncompetitive Inhibition Effects
- Vmax decreases.
- KM may increase or decrease.
