A molecule binds between two subunits and stabilizes the active form of an enzyme.What does this describe?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This describes allosteric activation, as a molecule is binding to a specific site on the enzyme and stabilizing its active form. Allosteric inhibition, on the other hand, would bind to a different site and stabilize the inactive form. Cooperativity involves the binding of multiple molecules to an enzyme, leading to a change in its shape and activity. Competitive activation and feedback activation are not recognized terms in enzyme regulation.
