Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The biological significance of the given observation that the native enzyme is reconstituted if isolated regulatory subunits and catalytic subunits of ATCase are mixed together is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The enzyme which is able to do the conformational changes if an effector gets attached to it is known as allosteric enzyme. The small molecules that on binding to the enzyme regulate its activity are known as effectors. The effectors increases or decreases the activity of the enzyme.
