Allosteric Enzymes: Properties and Mechanism | Microbiology

In this article we will discuss about the properties and mechanisms of action of allosteric enzymes. Properties of Allosteric Enzymes: Allosteric or Regulatory enzymes have multiple subunits (Quaternary Structure) and multiple active sites. Allosteric enzymes have active and inactive shapes differing in 3D structure. Allosteric enzymes often have multiple inhibitor or activator binding sites involved in switching between active and [...]

Processes of Metabolism in an Organism | Microbiology

Metabolism in any organism includes two processes anabolism and catabolism. These two processes include all the biochemical reactions of living organisms. Process # 1. Anabolism: It is a process in which essential biomolecules required for growth are generated by the utilization of energy. The chief biomolecules required are carbon like glucose, ribose, glycerol, pyruvate, etc. Some of the biomolecules act [...]
