Product Information
Furfural is a sugar-derived compound that has been used in the production of polyurethane and other synthetic materials. It is also a major component of "coffee grounds" and can be found in many food products, such as bakery goods, cocoa, and chocolate. Furfural inhibits lipases by binding to the active site of the enzyme which prevents it from breaking down fats. The basic group on furfural interacts with the active site of the enzyme, which slows down its reaction rate. A mathematical model has been created to help determine kinetic parameters for furfural's inhibitory effect on lipases. These parameters are then used to measure the affinity between furfural and the enzyme's active site based on mathematical theory. Furfural also has an inhibitory effect on hydroxamic acid-type enzymes by binding to their active sites and reducing their enzymatic activity. This may be due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules at the active site of
