Competitive inhibitors.

Step-by-step explanation:

▪ Transition state analogs can be used as inhibitors in enzyme-catalyzed reactions which are done by blocking the active site of the enzyme.

▪ A transition state analog is somewhat the same as that of the transition state.

▪These are better inhibitors than the substrate analogs in competitive inhibition, the reason is that they bind tighter to the enzyme rather than the substrate.

▪ Thus, they are classified as competitive inhibitors.
