Below is a metabolic pathway having 3 chemical reactions and 3 enzymes. Enzyme 1 has 2 binding sites--1 for the substrate A and another for the end product D. As the pathway proceeds, the end product in higher quantities will react with enzyme 1, blocking the enzyme's binding to the substrate. Which statement is true about this pathway? Substrate

A -enz1->
B -enz2->
C -enz3->
D end product

Answer: The correct answer is : A, B, C, D. All statements are correct.

Explanation: This case is called non-competitive inhibition. As a result of the inhibition of the enzyme, there will eventually be less substrate that becomes the final product and this route will be closed. Enzyme 1 has two binding sites.
