Questions and Answers

What are cofactors in enzymes?

  • Activators that bind to the allosteric site of enzymes
  • Substrates that enzymes act upon
  • Nonprotein components required for enzyme activity (correct)
  • Inhibitors that bind to the active site of enzymes
  • What are coenzymes?

  • Vitamins required for enzyme function (correct)
  • Inhibitors that bind to the allosteric site of enzymes
  • Activators that bind to the active site of enzymes
  • Substrates that enzymes act upon
  • What is the difference between competitive and noncompetitive inhibitors?

  • Competitive inhibitors cause a conformational change in the enzyme, while noncompetitive inhibitors do not
  • Both a and c (correct)
  • Competitive inhibitors prevent substrate binding, while noncompetitive inhibitors do not
