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