When a non-competitive inhibitor is added the Vmax is changed, while the Km remains unchanged. According to the Lineweaver-Burk plot the Vmax is reduced during the addition of a non-competitive inhibitor, which is shown in the plot by a change in both the slope and y-intercept when a non-competitive inhibitor is added. [8]
For example, an inhibitor might compete with substrate A for the first binding site, but be a non-competitive inhibitor with respect to substrate B in the second binding site. [26] Traditionally reversible enzyme inhibitors have been classified as competitive, uncompetitive, or non-competitive, according to their effects on K m and V max. [14]
On the other hand, the V max will decrease relative to an uninhibited enzyme. On a Lineweaver-Burk plot, the presence of a noncompetitive inhibitor is illustrated by a change in the y-intercept, defined as 1/V max. The x-intercept, defined as −1/K M, will remain the same. In competitive inhibition, the inhibitor will bind to an enzyme at the ...
This increase can cause the drag coefficient to rise to more than ten times its low-speed value. The value of the drag-divergence Mach number is typically greater than 0.6; therefore it is a transonic effect. The drag-divergence Mach number is usually close to, and always greater than, the critical Mach number.
If the inhibitor is different from the substrate, then competitive inhibition will increase Km while Vmax remains the same, and non-competitive will decrease Vmax while Km remains the same. However, under substrate inhibiting effects where two of the same substrate molecules bind to the active sites and inhibitory sites, the reaction rate will ...
The speed for greatest range (i.e. distance travelled) is the speed at which a straight line from the origin is tangent to the fuel flow rate curve. The curve of range versus airspeed is normally very shallow and it is customary to operate at the speed for 99% best range since this gives 3-5% greater speed for only 1% less range.
Competitive inhibition can be overcome by adding more substrate to the reaction, which increases the chances of the enzyme and substrate binding. As a result, competitive inhibition alters only the K m, leaving the V max the same. [3] This can be demonstrated using enzyme kinetics plots such as the Michaelis–Menten or the Lineweaver-Burk plot.
Requiring the force balance F d = F e and solving for the velocity v gives the terminal velocity v s. Note that since the excess force increases as R 3 and Stokes' drag increases as R , the terminal velocity increases as R 2 and thus varies greatly with particle size as shown below.
