The Kmof an enzyme frownase for its substrate HAPPY is 05 mM
The Kmof an enzyme, frownase, for its substrate HAPPY is 0.5 mM. Which of the following competitive inhibitors do you predict would be the LEAST effective?
| TICKLE Km= 0.25 mM |
| FLIP Km= 0.5 mM |
| SMILE Km= 1 mM |
| FUNNY Km= 0.10 mM |
Solution
Correct answer would be: SMILE Km = 1 mM
Reason: As per the question, since substarte HAPPY has Km of 0.5mM , its competitive inhibitor that would be least effective would be SMILE Km = 1mM.
