Affinity label

Index Affinity label

Affinity labels are molecules similar in structure to a particular substrate for a specific enzyme and are considered to be a class of enzyme inhibitors. [1]

5 relations: Active site, Enzyme, Molecule, Substrate (chemistry), Suicide inhibition.

Active site

In biology, the active site is the region of an enzyme where substrate molecules bind and undergo a chemical reaction.

Enzyme

Enzymes are macromolecular biological catalysts.

Molecule

A molecule is an electrically neutral group of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds.

Substrate (chemistry)

In chemistry, a substrate is typically the chemical species being observed in a chemical reaction, which reacts with a reagent to generate a product.

Suicide inhibition

In biochemistry, suicide inhibition, also known as suicide inactivation or mechanism-based inhibition, is an irreversible form of enzyme inhibition that occurs when an enzyme binds a substrate analogue and forms an irreversible complex with it through a covalent bond during the normal catalysis reaction.
