A) excess substrates
B) binding of regulatory molecules at sites other than the active sites

D) a lack of coenzymes
E) changes in pH

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Allosteric regulation results from binding of regulatory molecules at sites other than the active sites of the enzyme, which causes a conformational change in the enzyme and affects its activity. It is not a result of excess substrates, temperature change, lack of coenzymes, or changes in pH.
