Inhibitor enzimatic

Un inhibitor enzimatic este o moleculă care se leagă de o enzimă cu scopul de a descrește activitatea acesteia. Prin blocarea activității enzimatice, medicamentele care sunt inhibitori enzimatici pot distruge agenții patogeni^[1] sau pot corecta anumite dezechilibre metabolice.^[2]^[3] Aceeași idee este valorificată și în cazul pesticidelor. Totuși, nu toate moleculele care se leagă de enzime sunt inhibitori: există și compuși activatori enzimatici, care vor crește activitatea acestora.
