Essential Biochemistry - Enzymes (Section 2 - No. 50)
Which type of inhibition alters the Vmax but not Km?
Competitive inhibition
Noncompetitive inhibition
Uncompetitive inhibition
Allosteric inhibition
Explanation
Noncompetitive inhibitors reduce Vmax, but do not affect Km, as the inhibitor binds to a site other than the active site.
