Question

Select the type of enzyme regulation that most closely matches the description for questions 5-7.

5. An effector molecule binds the enzyme at another site other than the active site. Once the effector binds, it causes a conformational change in the enzyme. The enzyme is now able to convert substrate to product.

Question 5 options:

A) Competitive Inhibition B) Allosteric Activation C) Allosteric Inhibition

6. A molecule binds the enzyme at the activation site, preventing substrate from entering the active site.

Question 6 options:

A) Competitive Inhibition B) Allosteric Activation C) Allosteric Inhibition

7. An effector molecule binds the enzyme at another site other than the active site. Once the effector binds, it causes a conformational change in the enzyme. The enzyme is no longer able to convert substrate to product.

Question 7 options:

A) Competitive Inhibition B)Allosteric Activation C)Allosteric Inhibition

Explanation / Answer

5. B. B) Allosteric Activation Since it binds to another site apart from the active site, it is an allosteric modification. Since the enzyme is able to convert the substrate into product, the process is not inhibition

6. A) Competitive Inhibition

Since the molecule binds to the active site, it is not allosteric. Since it prevents the subtrate, it is inhibition.

7. C)Allosteric Inhibition

Since it binds to another site apart from the active site, it is an allosteric modification. Since the enzyme is not able to convert the substrate into product, the process is inhibition
