Plant Physiology
Allosteric regulation is a process by which an enzyme's activity is modified through the binding of an effector molecule at a site other than the enzyme's active site. This mechanism allows for the fine-tuning of metabolic pathways, particularly in amino acid biosynthesis and protein metabolism, ensuring that the cells can efficiently respond to changes in their environment and maintain homeostasis.
congrats on reading the definition of Allosteric Regulation. now let's actually learn it.
