A __________ binds to enzyme's allosteric site resulting in alteration of the enzyme's active site so that the enzyme can no longer bind substrate. A __________ binds to enzyme's active site, blocking the binding of substrate to the active site. options for fill in the blank coenzyme cofactor competitive inhibitor noncompetitive inhibitor

In competitive inhibition, an inhibitor: binds at several different sites on an enzyme, binds covalently to the enzyme, binds only to the ES complex, binds reversibly at the active site, and lowers the characteristic Vmax of the enzyme.
Shadi I.
Indicate whether each of the following describes a competitive or a noncompetitive enzyme inhibitor: a. The inhibitor has a structure similar to the substrate. b. The effect of the inhibitor cannot be reversed by adding more substrate. c. The inhibitor competes with the substrate for the active site. d. The structure of the inhibitor is not similar to the substrate. e. The addition of more substrate reverses the inhibition.
