End Product Reaction Define Inhibition Describe Usefulness Controlling Metabolic

End-product inhibition occurs when a product inhibits its own production enzyme, acting as negative feedback to prevent excess buildup.

End-product inhibition occurs when a reaction's product inhibits the enzyme responsible for its own production, preventing excess product formation and conserving resources.

Front Define end-product inhibition, describe its usefulness in controlling metabolic pathways.
Back End-product inhibition - when product of a reaction inhibits the enzyme required for the reaction
  • Useful bc it makes sure that no excess products are made and resources are not wasted - negative feedback
