In the concerted model of allosteric regulation, the binding of the first substrate molecule facilitates the binding of additional substrate molecules and the conversion of other subunits to the active state. However, it does not facilitate the binding of inhibitors to the enzyme.

In the Concerted Model the Binding of the First Substrate
