🗑
The Nonprotein portion cofactor and be i_________ or o______.   inorganic or organic  
🗑
Organic nonprotein portion cofactor consist of:   coenzymens  
🗑
Inorganic nonprotein portion cofactor consist of:   metals  
🗑
Apoenzyme + Cofactor =   Holoenzyme  
🗑
many are derived from vitamins   Cofactor  
🗑
small molecules, not an structural part of the enzyme   coenzymes  
🗑
Coenzymes function as:   Electron carriers/transfer Usually interact briefly with enzyme (organic)  
🗑
An example of a coenzyme is N__+   NAD+  
🗑
Factors that influencing enzymatic activity are:   • Temperature • pH • Inhibitors  
🗑
Protein denaturing agents are can be P______or C_____.   Physical Chemical  
🗑
Inhibitors include   Heavy-metal ions (lead, arsenic, mercury, etc.) – Chemicals structurally similar to substrate (competitive inhibition) – Protein denaturing agents • Physical • Chemical  
🗑
Enzyme inhibitors Competitive:   Substances similar to substrate and bind to active site  
🗑
Example of Enzyme Competition is (PABA)________________   Sulfanilamide – para-amino benzoic acid  
🗑
Inorganic cofactors are a p_________component of the enzyme   Permanent component of the enzyme  
🗑

🗑
Bridge between substrate and enzyme   inorganic cofactor  
🗑
Enzyme inhibitors that are non competitive and that tie up cofactor metals Example C______ binds to Fe-   Cyanide binds strongly to Fe –Inhibits the enzyme cytochrome C oxidase which needs Fe as a cofactor  
🗑
Cyanide binds strongly to Fe –Inhibits the enzyme:   cytochrome c oxidase  
🗑
In allosteric inhibition the enzyme:   it is a Normal regulatory physiological process – andthe End product binds to allosteric site changing its shape

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
