Question: The enzyme carboxypeptidases catalyses the hydrolysis of polypeptides and here we consider its inhibition. The following results were obtained when the rate of the enzymolysis
The enzyme carboxypeptidases catalyses the hydrolysis of polypeptides and here we consider its inhibition. The following results were obtained when the rate of the enzymolysis of carbobenzoxy-glycyl-D-phenylalanine (CBGP) was monitored without inhibitor: (All rates in this problem were measured with the same concentration of enzyme and are relative to the rate measured when [CBGP] a = 0.0713 mol dm-3 in the absence of inhibitor.) When 2.0 x 10-3 mol dm-3 phenyl butyrate ion was added to a solution containing the enzyme and substrate, the following results were obtained: In a separate experiment, the effect of 5.0 x 10-2 mol dm? benzoate ion was monitored and the results were: Determine the mode of inhibition of carboxypeptidases by the phenyl butyrate ion and benzoate ion,
[CBGP),/(10- mol dm-) Relative reaction rate (CBGP,/(10-2 mol dm-) Relative reaction rate 3.84 5.81 1.25 7.13 0,859 0.669 1.000 0.398 4.00 1.25 5.50 2.50 0.172 0.344 0.548 0.301 ICBGP),/(10- mol dm-) Relative reaction rate 1.75 2.50 10.00 5.00 0.183 0.201 0.246 0.231
