Enzymes are the biocatalysts accelerating chemical reactions. There are some enzymes which contain a specific region which is the binding site of effectors (tiny regulatory molecules) additionally and detach from the substrate-binding site hence bringing about an impact to the catalytic process, these are allosteric enzymes.
