Question

What is the effect of noncompetitive inhibitors on the catalytic constant (kcat) and overall reaction velocity?

Accepted Answer

They decrease kcat, leading to a decreased reaction velocity.

Answer

They increase kcat, but the reaction velocity remains unchanged.

Answer

They increase kcat, leading to an increased reaction velocity.

Answer

They do not affect kcat, so the reaction velocity remains unchanged.
