In the presence of a non-competitive inhibitor a Lineweaver-Burk plot has a higher y-intercept than a control (without any inhibitor), and the x intercept is the same as that for the control. Explain what this indicates.

The Lineweaver- Burk plot is representation of Lineweaver-Burk equation of enzyme kinetics in graphical plot that is presented by the Hans Lineweaver and Dean Burk.

In the presence of a non competitive inhibitor shows higher y-intercept than a control in absence of any inhibitor whereas the x intercept is the same as the control that suggests or tells that maximum enzyme activity of the reaction is decreased, Higher Y intercept than controls means that it is same as 1/Vmax. The X intercept indicates that there is no effect on Km of the enzyme reaction.

the solute can move "downhill," from regions of higher to lower concentration, relying on the specificity of the protein carrier to pass through the membrane. this process is called passive transport or facilitated diffusion, and does not require energy.
