A plant compound was recently found to act as an inhibitor of the enzyme CDK, a kinase that activates proteins needed for cell division. This compound is being tested as a potential chemotherapy drug. Experiments have shown that the compound acts by binding non-covalently outside of the CDK active site and that it does not alter the shape of the active site upon binding. Which of the following can you conclude based on this information?
The saturation of an enzyme can be interpreted as ______.
The saturation of an enzyme can be interpreted as ______.

The viral enzyme neuraminidase is involved in the release of viral particles from infected cells. A common drug designed to treat influenza acts as an inhibitor of neuraminidase by binding non-covalently to its active site. Which of the following can you conclude based on this information?
Which of the following is FALSE of the binding of a substrat…
Which of the following is FALSE of the binding of a substrate to an enzyme? STOP! Did you select the FALSE statement?
