Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
dehydroascorbic acid inhibitory action of dehydroascorbic acid is revealed in the presence of Fe3+ ions and found to be primarily mediated by H2O2. The resulting inhibition by dehydroascorbic acid -Fe3+ consists of enzyme thiol oxidation and its effectiveness grew with increasing pH Canavalia ensiformis
L-ascorbic acid in an unbuffered system L-ascorbic acid inactivates urease in a biphasic manner by denaturation brought about by ascorbic acid-lowered pH. In a buffered system neither ascorbic acid nor dehydroascorbic acid themselves are inhibitors of urease Canavalia ensiformis
