Which term describes enzyme regulation controlled through binding of a second molecule to a different site on the enzyme?
A
Feedback Inhibition
B
Allosteric Regulation
C
Phosphorylation
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that enzymes can be regulated by molecules that bind to sites other than the active site, which is known as allosteric regulation.
Recognize that allosteric regulation involves the binding of an effector molecule at an allosteric site, which is distinct from the enzyme's active site.
Learn that this binding can cause a conformational change in the enzyme, affecting its activity either by activating or inhibiting it.
Differentiate allosteric regulation from other forms of enzyme regulation, such as feedback inhibition, where the end product of a metabolic pathway inhibits an enzyme involved in its synthesis.
Identify that phosphorylation is another form of enzyme regulation, involving the addition of a phosphate group, which is different from allosteric regulation.
