Enzymes

=**__Enzyme__**= This online lesson package lasts 1 hour.

Lesson outcome: *Explain enzyme kinetics related to competitive and non-competitive inhibitors


 * 1) Read through your notes from page 14 to 16 on Competitive and non-competitive inhibition.
 * 2) Go through the links below to find out how the competitive and non-competitive inhibitor works.
 * 3) Compare and contrast the differences of competitive and non-competitive inhibition (complete this part on page 5 of your Enzyme worksheet)
 * 4) Research on the importance/ uses/ implications of enzyme inhibition in the human body. (E.g. Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors are used as to slow (inhibit) the activity of the enzyme which causes blood vessels to enlarge or dilate so as to reduce blood pressure). **All** of you have to contribute in this discussion in the DISCUSSION link of this page.
