      Hello,
      A lot, in fact most, of the theory overlaps but I realise there are some differences.
      I hope to make videos for different exam boards in 2021. If there is a particular topic you want I haven't covered which is on your specification then let me know.

    i bought some of your question packs and they look really helpful but they have so many questions I don't know when i should do them around revision and general practice. Would you happen to have any advice? Also thanks so much for your help, I actually didn't realise there was a method to answering the questions

    • @MissEstruchBiology
      @MissEstruchBiology  Рік тому

      maybe start by completing two questions a week. this should take 30-60 mins. As you get closer to exams you could increase this to a few times a week and in exam conditions

    For the question that talks about gout and enzymes, how did you know whether or not an enzyme in the question is an competitive inhibitor or a non competitive inhibitor? If it's competitive, can I say that the enzyme has an allosteric site and when that enzyme binds to that one, the shape changes?

    • @MissEstruchBiology
      @MissEstruchBiology  2 роки тому +2

      Competitive inhibitors are similar in shape to the substrate and therefore bind to the active site.
      Allosteric site is where a non-competitive inhibitor binds.

    hi miss, I actually just have a couple questions about enzymes. I don't know why I havent thought of then before, but - when we describe enzyme action, we talk about the active not being perfectly complementary to the substrate before it binds? But then in other contexts we do talk about it being complementary/ the substrate or competitive being complementary to it? Then I noticed in MP 2 for that question it said 'igmore complementary'? for the comptetitive inhibitor?

    • @hares9045
      @hares9045 2 роки тому +1

      Ah i believe I can help you. With that MP 2, they are not complimentary, u say they are similar shape to the substrate molecule. This is when you talk about competitive inhibitors. But in other situations, such as when pH, temp and non-competitive inhibitors, you mention that the substrate molecule is not complimentary to the enzymes active site
