#Unit 1. Structure and Function of Biomolecules

Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate binds to its allosteric site on PFK-1, it increases the enzyme’s affinity for its substrate fructose 6-phosphate and reduces its affinity for the allosteric inhibitors ATP and citrate

#Id: 335

#Unit 1. Structure and Function of Biomolecules

Glucagon lowers the cellular level of fructose 2,6 bisphosphate, inhibiting glycolysis and stimulating gluconeogenesis.

#Id: 342

#Unit 1. Structure and Function of Biomolecules

Accumulation of alanine, which can be synthesized from pyruvate in one step, allosterically inhibits pyruvate kinase, slowing the production of pyruvate by glycolysis
