Which of the following is NOT correct regarding non-competitive inhibition? A)Non-competitive inhibitors interact with the enzyme as well as the enzyme-substrate complex. B)Increasing the concentration of [S] can overcome the inhibition. C)The V_max value does not remain the same as for a reaction that is not inhibited. D)The inhibitor can cause a conformational change in the enzyme.

Increasing the concentration of substrate cannot overcome non-competitive inhibition, unlike competitive inhibition where increasing the substrate concentration can outcompete the inhibitor for the active site.
