Questions and Answers

What is an allosteric enzyme?

  • An enzyme that binds to a site other than the active site, causing a change in its shape and activity (correct)
  • An enzyme that has only one subunit
  • An enzyme that only binds to the active site
  • An enzyme that does not require any binding to function
  • What causes the unusual kinetic properties of many allosteric enzymes?

  • Their interaction with multiple subunits (correct)
  • Their ability to bind to multiple active sites
  • Their ability to change shape without binding to any molecule
  • Their inability to bind to any molecule
  • How does binding of a molecule to an allosteric site affect the activity of the enzyme?

  • It increases the activity of the enzyme (correct)
  • It decreases the activity of the enzyme
  • It causes the enzyme to stop functioning
  • It has no effect on the activity of the enzyme
