The allosteric inhibitor of an enzyme ___________
Answer: C
Correct answer: Participates in feedback regulation
An allosteric inhibitor binds at a regulatory site, not the active site, and changes the enzyme’s shape so that catalysis slows. Typically the inhibitor is the end product of the pathway, so that when enough has accumulated the first enzyme is switched off - which is exactly what feedback regulation means. Nothing is denatured, and the effect is reversible.
