Chapter 22, Problem 22.66QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The four allosteric enzymes that are either under negative allosteric control or positive allosteric control in the citric acid cycle have to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Allosteric enzymes are enzymes that have an additional site called allosteric sites along with the active site. They are unique and have the ability to respond to multiple different conditions. Allosteric sites are binding sites on the enzyme different from the active site and the substrate-binding site. The molecule binds to the allosteric site is called as effector that regulates the activity of the enzyme.
