    B

    It increases the KmK_m without changing the VmaxV_{max}.

    C

    It decreases both the KmK_m and the VmaxV_{max}.

    D

    3.

    An enzyme exhibiting positive cooperativity shows a sigmoidal kinetic curve. Which statement is FALSE regarding this type of enzyme?

    A

    The binding of the first substrate molecule decreases the enzyme's affinity for subsequent substrate molecules.

    B

    The enzyme likely has multiple subunits.

    C

    The Hill coefficient is greater than 1.

    D

    The enzyme's activity is more sensitive to substrate concentration changes compared to enzymes with Michaelis-Menten kinetics.

    Enzyme X catalyzes the conversion of A to B. An uncompetitive inhibitor binds only to the enzyme-substrate complex. Which equation correctly represents the relationship between VmaxV_{max} and VmaxappV_{max}^{app} (apparent VmaxV_{max}) in the presence of the uncompetitive inhibitor?

    A

    Vmaxapp=Vmax1+[I]KiV_{max}^{app} = \frac{V_{max}}{1 + \frac{[I]}{K_i}}

    B

    Vmaxapp=Vmax(1+[I]Ki)V_{max}^{app} = V_{max}(1 + \frac{[I]}{K_i})

    C

    Vmaxapp=VmaxV_{max}^{app} = V_{max}

    D

    Vmaxapp=VmaxKiV_{max}^{app} = \frac{V_{max}}{K_i}
