Back in 1962, Gerhart and Pardee developed a model for the regulation of the activity of the ATCase
enzyme by CTP and ATP, using the pathway given in Figure 1. Describe that model, using
information presented here as well as what you have learned about allosteric enzymes. Be sure to
include a sentence explaining the physiological significance of your model.
For a lot of enzymes that work on fatty acids, the rate determining step is the release of the product from the active site. This means that the activation energy for product release is much higher than the free energy of catalysis. What enthalpic or entropic contributions would make the activation energy for product release so high and explain?
Does an enzyme-mediated reaction need the same, more, or less activation energy than the same reaction occurring without the presence of the enzyme? Explain why.
