match the type of inhibitor

Uncompetitive Inhibitor

Binds to enzyme-substrate complex, and inactivates the enzyme

Non-competitive Inhibitor

Does not compete with substrate; looks for areas other than the active site (allosteric site)

Uncompetitive Inhibitor

Does not prevent substrate from binding to the enzyme. However, even if substrate binds, NO PRODUCTS ARE FORMED.

Competitive Inhibitor

Effect of this inhibitor can be counteracted by adding more substrate

Non-competitive Inhibitor

Changes the shape of active site; as a result, enzyme loses ability to bind with original substrate

Competitive Inhibitor

This inhibitor resembles the shape of the substrate

Competitive Inhibitor

Substrate and inhibitor compete for the same active site of the enzyme

Uncompetitive Inhibitor

Vmax = decreased, Km = decreased

Non-competitive Inhibitor

Vmax = decreased, Km = unchanged

Competitive Inhibitor

Vmax = unchanged, Km = increased

Non-competitive Inhibitor

is able to slow down the rate of reaction
