Inhibitors

enzyme inhibitors have 3 kinds
-


Competitive Inhibitors:
- similar structure to the subtrates
- binds to active site, blocking substrate
- increasing substrate concentration decreases the effectiveness of inhibitors
-
evidently it wasn’t of that sort... increasing substrate concentration didn’t have much effect...


Non-Competitive inhibitors
which have 2 kinds...
-
irreversible - active site is PERMANENTLY damaged, enzyme denatured...
-
allosteric, - binds to an alternate site, changes active site conformation so it no longer binds.
however enzyme becomes activated again after the inhibitor is broken down...
-
ah well, the inhibitor has been broken down...
so its back to what it was...
dunno if that’s a bad or good thing...
-
but it certainly is painful sometimes... a grief-joy mixture...
-
how, i don’t know
but the only thing i can do is trust... that
-
“If its by Your will, let it be so...
If not, may I come out from this stronger...
and may it always glorify Your name...”



I know KK is a trip which always involved surrender...
-
but I must always remember this as well
-
Surrendering is not about giving up for God,
but of giving in to God
-
and that one minor amendment... will make all the difference...
I think I understand better now...
-
“Seek first His Kingdom, and His righteousness”
“And all these things will be added unto you”
-
hence the green light...
seek first Him... go in faith...
-
now... it would just be about whether NS wants me... and God is sovereign
-
hence I believe... if it is by His will, I will be able to go...
