Inhibition Constant
Summary
The
inhibition constant
(Ki) is a
measure of how effectively an inhibitor can bind
to an enzyme or receptor, indicating the
potency of the inhibitor
. A
lower Ki value
signifies a
more potent inhibitor
, as it requires a lower concentration to achieve the same level of inhibition as an inhibitor with a
higher Ki value
.
