Select the option which is not correct with respect to enzyme action:
1. Substrate binds with enzyme at its active site.
2. Addition of a lot of succinate does not reverse the inhibition of succinic dehydrogenase by malonate.
3. A non-competitive inhibitor binds the enzyme at a site distinct from that which binds the substrate.
4. Malonate is a competitive inhibitor of succinic dehydrogenase.
Which one of the following statements is incorrect?
1. In competitive inhibition, the inhibitor molecule is not chemically changed by the enzyme.
2. The competitive inhibitor does not affect the rate of breakdown of the enzyme-substrate complex.
3. The presence of the competitive inhibitor decreases the Km of the enzyme for the substrate.
4. A competitive inhibitor reacts reversibly with the enzyme to form an enzyme-inhibitor complex.
