ENZYME INHIBITION

Enzymes are often inhibited by the presence of suitable inhibitors. Much of current drug therapy is based on this. Basically, there are three major classes of enzyme inhibition. These are:

Competitive inhibition, when the substrate and inhibitor compete for binding to the same active site

Noncompetitive inhibition, when the inhibitor binds somewhere else on the enzyme molecule reducing its efficiency, and

IJncompetitive inhibition
