In mixed inhibition, the allosteric effect affects:
Correct answer: C. Shape of enzyme
- A. Shape of substrate
- B. Shape of inhibitor
- C. Shape of enzyme
- D. None of these options are correct
Explanation
The allosteric effect in mixed inhibition, alters the shape of enzyme so no substrate can bind to an ultimately no activity can be carried out.

About Enzymes
Enzymes are biological catalysts that lower activation energy without being consumed, and their specificity is explained by the lock and key and induced fit models. Work includes the effects of temperature, pH and substrate concentration on reaction rate, plus competitive and non-competitive inhibition and how these differ.
