Enzymes inhibition
Because the catalytic action of an enzyme
depends on its specific configuration as a protein,
many substrate can inhibit this activity by
changing the configuration of the enzyme
(binding metal cation, drugs, or other charged
molecules to the protein). There are two types of
inhibitors:
1. Competitive inhibitors
2. Non competitive inhibitors
• Penicillin are to stop the bacterial growth by
inhibiting the enzyme transpeptidase
