Statements about Enzyme Inhibitor Drugs are given below :
(A) There are Competitive and Non-competitive inhibitor drugs.
(B) These can bind at the active sites and allosteric sites.
(C) Competitive Drugs are allosteric site blocking drugs.
(D) Non-competitive Drugs are active site blocking drugs.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below
Options
- A\left(A\right), only
- B\left(A\right), only
- C\left(A\right), only
- D\left(B\right), only
Correct answer
C. \left(A\right), only
Step-by-step solution
Enzyme inhibitors are molecules that interact with enzymes (temporary or permanent) in some way and reduce the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction or prevent enzymes to work in a normal manner. Enzyme inhibitors can be competitive inhibitors (inhibit the attachment of substrate on active site of enzyme) and non-competitive inhibitor (changes the active site of enzyme after binding at allosteric site.) So, statement A and B are correct. But statement C and D are incorrect.
