Inhibitors |
|
 |
| Enzyme
inhibitors are molecules that
bind to enzymes and decrease
their activity. Since blocking
an enzyme's activity can kill
a pathogen or correct a
metabolic imbalance, many
drugs are enzyme inhibitors.
They are also used as
herbicides and pesticides. Not
all molecules that bind to
enzymes are inhibitors; enzyme
activators bind to enzymes and
increase their enzymatic
activity. The binding of an
inhibitor can stop a substrate
from entering the enzyme's
active site and/or hinder the
enzyme from catalysing its
reaction. Inhibitor binding is
either reversible or
irreversible. Irreversible
inhibitors usually react with
the enzyme and change it
chemically. These inhibitors
modify key amino acid residues
needed for enzymatic activity.
In contrast, reversible
inhibitors bind non-covalently
and different types of
inhibition are produced
depending on whether these
inhibitors bind the enzyme,
the enzyme-substrate complex,
or both. Many drug molecules
are enzyme inhibitors, so
their discovery and
improvement is an active area
of research in biochemistry
and pharmacology. A medicinal
enzyme inhibitor is often
judged by its specificity (its
lack of binding to other
proteins) and its potency (its
dissociation constant, which
indicates the concentration
needed to inhibit the enzyme).
A high specificity and potency
ensure that a drug will have
few side effects and thus low
toxicity. |
