QUESTION 16 In biochemistry, the activity of an enzyme is regulated by many factors as follows, except: Allosteric modulators DNA melting points mRNA stability Dephosphorylation of phosphorylated proteins protein pH environment QUESTION 17 In metabolic pathways, good control points usually are reaction steps that are far from equilibrium because free energy changes (ΔG) for these reactions are very small; close to the rate differences between the forward and reverse steps are often small; these reactions are irreversible the net flux through those steps easily reversed these reactions occur most frequently in the cell;
