What are allosteric enzymes?



What are allosteric enzymes?..

Answer / Mukesh Chandra

"Allosteric enzymes are enzymes that can undergo a conformational change due to the binding of a modulator (allosteric effector) at an allosteric site, distinct from the active site. This conformational change alters the shape and properties of the active site, which in turn affects the enzyme's affinity for the substrate."n
