General Properties of Allosteric Enzymes
Key points:
 An allosteric enzyme is regulated by its effectors
(activator or inhibitor).
 Allosteric effectors bind noncovalently to the enzyme.
 Allosteric enzymes are often multi-subunit proteins.
 A plot of V0 against [S] for an allosteric enzyme gives
a sigmoidal-shaped curve.
 The binding of allosteric enzyme with an effector will
induce a conformational change
Does not consume energy

1.5 Regulation of Enzyme Level in Cells
(Genetic Control)
The amount of enzyme present is a balance
between the rates of its synthesis and degradation.
The level of induction or repression of the gene
encoding the enzyme, and the rate of degradation of its
mRNA, will alter the rate of synthesis of the enzyme
protein.
Once the enzyme protein has been synthesized, the
rate of its breakdown (half-life ) can also be altered as a
means of regulating enzyme activity.
37
37
1.5.1 Induction and repression of E Pr Synthesis
Induction: the activation of enzyme synthesis.
Repression: the shutdown of enzyme synthesis.
Genetic control of enzyme leverl means to
controlling the transcription of mRNA needed for an
enzyme’s synthesis.
In prokaryotic cells, it also involves regulatory
proteins that induce or repress enzyme’s synthesis.
Regulatory proteins bind to DNA, and then block or
enhance the function of RNA polymerase. So, regulatory
proteins may function as repressors or activators.
38
38
Repressor
Repressors are regulatory proteins that block
transcription of mRNA, by binding to the operator that
lies downstream of promoter.
This binding will prevent RNA polymerase from
passing the operator and transcribing the coding
sequence for the enzyme.------Negative control.
Regulatory proteins are allosteric proteins. Some
special molecules can bind to regulatory proteins and
alter their conformation, and then affect their ability to
bind to DNA.

43
43
Bacteria also Use Translational Control of Enzyme
Synthesis
The bacteria produces antisense RNA that
is complementary to the mRNA coding for the
enzyme.
When the antisense RNA binds to the
mRNA by complementary base paring, the
mRNA cannot be translated into protein.
44
44
1.5.2 Degradation of Enzyme Proteins
Cellular enzyme proteins are in a dynamic state with
change of enzyme synthesis and degradation so that
ultimately determine enzyme level at any point in time.
In many instances, transcriptional regulation
determines the concentrations of specific enzyme, with
enzyme proteins degradation playing a minor role.
In other instances, protein synthesis is constitutive,
and the amounts of key enzymes and regulatory proteins
are controlled via selective protein degradation.
In addition, it also involves the abnormal enzyme
proteins ( biosynthetic errors or post-synthetic damage).
45
45
There are two pathways to degrade
enzyme protein in cells:
1. Lysosomal pathway
ATP independent
2. Proteasome pathway

Section Two
Metabolic Regulation at
Hormone Level
Hormones are generally secreted by
endocrine glands, travelled by blood stream to
specific target cells.
By these mechanisms, hormones regulate
the metabolic processes in various organs and
tissues; facilitate and control growth,
differentiation, reproductive activities, learning
and memory; and help organisms coping with
changing conditions and stresses to around
environment.
52
52
Hormonal regulation depends upon the transduction
of the hormonal signal across the plasma membrane to
specific intracellular sites, particularly the nucleus.
Many steps in these signal across the signalling
pathway involve phosphorylation of Ser, Thr, and Tyr
residues on target proteins.
According to receptor’s location in a cell, hormones
are divided into two classes:
Hormones act on cell membrane receptors
Hormones act on intracellular receptors
53
53
Hormones act on cell membrane receptors
54
54
Hormones act on intracellular receptors
55

2.1 Regulation of Hormones to Receptors on
Cell Membrane
Hormones act on membrane receptors, as the first
messenger, to activate various signal transduction
pathways that mobilize various second messengers----cAMP, cGMP, Ca2+, IP3 , DG that activate or inhibit enzymes
or cascade of enzymes in specific ways.
The first messengers:
Peptide or protein hormones: GH, Insulin, etc
Amino acid derivatives: epinephrine, norepinephrine

environment, human must have the ability
to adapting to the environment.
