HMG-CoA reductase, a critical enzyme in cholesterol synthesis is the target or statin inhibitors. You are characterizing a possible new inhibitor and want to determine its mode of binding to HMG-CoA reductase. Equilibrium dialysis measurements at 25°C, 30°C, and 37°C yielded dissociation constants (Ks) of 2.5 x 10* M, 1.5 x 10*, and 1.0 x 10* M, respectively, for the HMG- CoA reductase-inhibitor complex a. Is the binding becoming better or worse with increasing temperature? Explain. b. Using Excel or...
