Allosteric enzymes differ from Michaelis-Menten enzymes because they:
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Show sigmoidal kinetics
Allosteric enzymes exhibit sigmoidal (S-shaped) substrate saturation kinetics due to cooperative binding — binding of one substrate molecule increases affinity at remaining subunits. They possess separate regulatory sites that modulate activity through conformational changes.
