Question
Chapter 10, Problem 8P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The differentiation between homotropic effectors and heterotropic effectors 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.

Frog poison. Batrachotoxin (BTX) is a steroidal alkaloid from the skin
of Phyllobates terribilis, a poisonous Colombian frog (the source of
the poison used on blowgun darts). In the presence of BTX, Na+Na*
channels in an excised patch stay persistently open when the
membrane is depolarized. They close when the membrane is
repolarized. Which transition is blocked by BTX?
