About this document
Enzyme Activity Regulation in Cells by Jeffrey Lee is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses various ways that cells regulate enzyme activity, including allosteric regulation, covalent modification, and proteolytic cleavage. Allosteric regulation allows enzymes to exist in either an active or inactive state depending on the binding of regulator molecules to non-active sites. Feedback inhibition and feedforward stimulation are examples where the end products of a pathway regulate earlier enzymes. Covalent modification, like phosphorylation, can activate or deactivate enzymes.
