Competitive Inhibitor: inhibitor fits into active site and blocks substrate
•Non-competitive Inhibitor: binds to allosteric site which denatures the Active Site
•Reversible: weak hydrogen bonds or ionic bonds
•Non-reversible: strong covalent bonds •
Drug Inhibitor: antiviral drugs which blocks replication of DNA to stop spreading
•Metabolic poisons: e.g. – Cyanide (non-competitive, non-reversible) stops cell respiration
•Product Inhibition: regulates product production = the last substrate in the metabolic chain blocks the first enzyme
