ACTIVITY 3: Enzyme Regulation 1. Compare and contrast different types of enzyme regulation using the table. Competitive Inhibition | Allosteric Regulation | Covalent Modification (phosphorylation) --- | --- | --- Activates or Inhibits or Either? | | | Binds by noncovalent interactions? Or forms covalent bonds with enzyme? | | | Binds to Active Site? Or Elsewhere? | | | Causes Conformation Change in Enzyme? | | | 2. What is feedback inhibition? 3. How is this used to regulate a metabolic pathway?

Step 1
Competitive Inhibition: - Inhibits the enzyme - Binds by noncovalent interactions - Binds to the active site - Does not cause a conformational change in the enzyme Show more…

Describe allosteric regulation of enzyme activity. How does allosteric inhibition differ from other modes of regulation, and how can these work in concert to finely regulate enzyme activity? Provide an example.
Suman K.
Match the type of enzyme regulation with it description. A molecule binds to an area on an enzyme that causes the enzyme to increase its affinity for its substrates. A molecule competes with the substrate for the active site. A molecule binds to an enzyme causing it to change the shape of its active site so that it can no longer bind to its substrate. Non-protein molecules that help enzyme activity. Environmental factors that affect enzymatic activity. 1. Competitive Inhibition 2. Allosteric Inhibition 3. Allosteric Activation 4. pH and temperature 5. Cofactors and coenzymes
