Regulated enzyme is an enzyme in a biochemical pathway which through its response to the presence of certain other bio-molecules, regulates the pathway activities.
This is usually done for pathway whose products may be needed in different amounts at different time, for example hormone production.
Regulatory enzymes exists at high concentration so their activity can be increase or decreased with changes in substrate concentration.
The enzymes which catalyses chemical reaction again and again are called regulatory enzymes.
Given their catalytic roles in mediating the energy consuming and producing reactions and metabolic pathways within all organisms, enzymes provide the underlying physio-chemical mechanism for such orderly flow of metabolic energy.
Not only do cells need to balance metabolic and anabolism pathways but they must also monitor the needs and surpluses of all their different metabolic pathways.
Such up and down regulation of metabolic pathway is often a response to changes in concentration of key metabolites in the cell.
The management of biochemical reaction with enzymes is an important part of cellular maintenance.
