Diagram showing competitive inhibition. In competitive inhibition, an inhibitor that resembles the normal substrate binds to the enzyme, usually at the active site, and prevents the substrate from binding. [8] At any given moment, the enzyme may be bound to the inhibitor, the substrate, or neither, but it cannot bind both at the same time.

Competitive inhibitors can bind to E, but not to ES. Competitive inhibition increases K m (i.e., the inhibitor interferes with substrate binding), but does not affect V max (the inhibitor does not hamper catalysis in ES because it cannot bind to ES). [24]: 102 Uncompetitive inhibitors bind to ES. Uncompetitive inhibition decreases both K m and ...
Inhibitory control, also known as response inhibition, is a cognitive process – and, more specifically, an executive function – that permits an individual to inhibit their impulses and natural, habitual, or dominant behavioral responses to stimuli (a.k.a. prepotent responses) in order to select a more appropriate behavior that is consistent with completing their goals.
The apparent value of is unaffected by competitive inhibitors. Therefore competitive inhibitors have the same intercept on the ordinate as uninhibited enzymes. Competitive inhibition increases the apparent value of , or lowers substrate affinity. Graphically this can be seen as the inhibited enzyme having a larger intercept on the abscissa.
Enzyme inhibition can refer to the inhibition of the expression of the enzyme by another molecule; interference at the enzyme-level, basically with how the enzyme works. This can be competitive inhibition, uncompetitive inhibition, non-competitive inhibition or partially competitive inhibition.
