|
Fermentation |
Substrate-level phosphorylation. ATP directly synthesized from an energy rich intermediate |
|
|
Respiration |
Oxidative phosphorylation. ATP produced by proton motive force formed by transport of e- from organic/inorganic donors. |
|
|
Competitive Inhibition |
Vmax, aKm. Km increases, Vm constant. I takes away E from S. Y intercept stays the same for all alpha values. Slope increases. |
|
|
Uncompetitive Inhibition |
Vmax/a' and Km/a'. Vmax and Km decrease at same rate. Line has the same slope but different x and y intercepts. ES combines with I, takes away from products. |
|
|
Mixed Inhibition |
Combination of both. Vmax/a' and aKm/a'. Vmax decreases, Km unknown. |
|
|
Noncompetitive Inhibition |
Special case of mixed inhibition. a = a'. Vmax/a' and aKm/a'=Km. Km stays the same, Vmax decreases. Slope and y intercept change. |
