Allosteric Enzyme Kinetics
Description
Allostery is a form of regulation, in which enzymatic activity is modulated through the binding of an effector molecule. Effector binding mediates a conformational change that stabilizes either the low activity T state or high activity R state. These states can interconvert in solution, meaning kinetic reads represent all present states. Activity can then be shifted via effector molecule binding.
