Explain the role of the allosteric site in enzyme inhibition.

(N/A) Some drugs do not bind to the enzyme's active site. Instead,they bind to a different site on the enzyme known as the allosteric site.
This binding of an inhibitor at the allosteric site changes the shape of the active site in such a way that the substrate cannot recognize or bind to it.
If the bond formed between an enzyme and an inhibitor is a strong covalent bond and cannot be broken easily,the enzyme is blocked permanently. In such cases,the body degrades the enzyme-inhibitor complex and synthesizes a new enzyme.
