- The KM values for the reaction of chymotrypsin with two different substrates are given in the table below. Considering this information, which substrate has the lower apparent affinity for the enzyme? Which substrate is likely to give a lower value for Vmax? Substrate N-acetylvaline ethyl ester N-acetyltyrosine ethyl ester KM (M) 8.8 X 10-² 6.6 X 10-4 N-acetylvaline ethyl ester has the lower apparent affinity for the enzyme; it will also likely to give a lower Vmax: N-acetyltyrosine ethyl ester has the lower apparent affinity for the enzyme; it will also likely to give the lower V₁ max. N-acetylvaline ethyl ester has the lower apparent affinity for the enzyme; N- acetyltyrosine ethyl ester is likely to give the lower Vmax: N-acetyltyrosine ethyl ester has the lower apparent affinity for the enzyme; N- acetylvaline will likely to give the lower Vmax. None of the above statements are correct.One mechanism by which lead exerts its poisonous effect on enzymes can be stopped by chelation therapy with EDTA.

- Which statement is false for transition-state analog enzyme inhibitors? They fit the active site better than the substrate. Although they cannot perfectly mimic a transition state, they are important to the design of new pharmaceutical agents.
