Many biosynthetic pathways are regulated by feedback inhibition of enzymes. In a particular type of feedback inhibition, two endproducts individually do not inhibit an enzyme upstream in the pathway at all, but when both are present they inhibit the same enzyme significantly. What type of feedback inhibition do these inhibitors represent?
