Neuraminidase inhibitors are a class of antiviral drug s targeted at the influenza virus, which work by blocking the function of the viral neuraminidase protein, thus preventing the virus from reproducing by budding from the host cell. Oseltamivir Tamiflu a prodrug, Zanamivir Relenza , Laninamivir Inavir , and Peramivir belong to this class. Unlike the M2 protein M2 inhibitors, which work only against the influenza A, neuraminidase inhibitors act against both influenza A and influenza B . Common side effects include nausea and vomiting .

E.g., if a compound is so similar to one of the reactants that it can bind to the active site of a catalyst but does not undergo a catalytic reaction then that catalyst molecule cannot perform its job because the active site is occupied. When the inhibitor is released, the catalyst is again available for reaction. Inhibition and catalyst poisoning Inhibition should be distinguished from catalyst poisoning. An inhibitor only hinders the working of a catalyst, whilst in catalyst poisoning the catalyst is destroyed by an irreversible reaction with a chemical substance the active catalyst in the latter case may be regained by a separate process .

Mechanism This reduction in the effective concentration to the E S complex increases the enzyme s apparent affinity for the substrate through Le Chatelier s principle K sub m sub is lowered and decreases the maximum enzyme activity V sub max sub , as it takes longer for the substrate or product to leave the active site .

Unreferenced date December 2009 The inhibitor protein IP is situated in the mitochondrial matrix and protects the cell against rapid adenosine triphosphate ATP hydrolysis during momentary ischaemia . In oxygen absence, the pH of the matrix drops. This causes IP to become protonated and change its conformation to one that can bind to the F1Fo synthetase and stops it thereby preventing it from moving in a backwards direction and hydrolyze ATP instead of make it. When oxygen is finally incorporated into the system, the pH rises and IP is deprotonated. IP dissociates from the F1Fo synthetase and allows it to resume its ATP synthesis.

Unreferenced date March 2007 The Inhibitors of Apoptosis IAP are a family of functionally and structurally related proteins, which serve as endogenous inhibitors of programmed cell death apoptosis . A common feature of all IAPs is the presence of a BIR Baculovirus IAP Repeat, a 70 amino acid domain in one to three copies. The human IAP family consists 8 members, and IAP homologs have been identified in numerous organisms. The first members of the IAPs identified were from the baculovirus IAPs, Cp IAP and Op IAP, which bind to and inhibit caspases as a mechanism that contributes to its efficient infection and replication cycle in the host. Later, five more human IAPs were discovered which included XIAP , BIRC2 c IAPl , Baculoviral IAP repeat containing protein 3 C IAP2 , NAIP , and survivin . The best characterized IAP is XIAP , which binds caspase 9 , caspase 3 and caspase 7 , thereby inhibiting their activation and preventing apoptosis . Also cIAP1 and cIAP2 have been shown to bind caspases, although how the IAPs inhibit apoptosis mechanistically at the molecular level is not completely understood. Activity of XIAP is blocked by binding to Diablo homolog DIABLO Smac and HtrA serine peptidase 2 HTRA2 Omi proteins released from mitochondria after pro apoptic stimuli.

A corrosion inhibitor is a chemical compound that, when added to a liquid or gas, decreases the corrosion rate of a material, typically a metal or an alloy . ref Hubert Gr fen, Elmar Manfred Horn, Hartmut Schlecker, Helmut Schindler Corrosion Ullmann s Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Wiley VCH Weinheim, 2002. DOI 10.1002 14356007.b01 08 ref The effectiveness of a corrosion inhibitor depends on fluid composition, quantity of water, and flow regime. A common mechanism for inhibiting corrosion involves formation of a coating, often a passivation layer, which prevents access of the corrosive substance to the metal. Permanent treatments such as chrome plating are not generally considered inhibitors, however. Instead corrosion inhibitors are additives to the fluids that surround the metal or related object. Corrosion inhibitors and their role The nature of the corrosive agent depends on i the material being protected, which are most commonly metal objects, and ii on the corrosive agent s to be neutralized. The corrosive agents are generally oxygen, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon dioxide . Oxygen is generally removed by reductive inhibitors such as amine s and hydrazine s O sub 2 sub N sub 2 sub H sub 4 sub 2 H sub 2 sub O N sub 2 sub In this example, hydrazine converts oxygen, a common corrosive agent, to water, which is generally benign.
