inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase by...

inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase by malonate is an example of

A

non-competitive inhibition

B

competitive inhibition

C

allosteric inhibition

D

negative feedback.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The enzyme succinate dehydrogenase is a classical example of competitive inhibition with succinic acid as its substrate. The compounds, namely, malonic acid, glutaric acid and oxalic, have structural similarity with succinic acid and compete with the substrate for binding at the active site of succinate dehydrogenase enzyme .
