Explore: Enzyme Repression

An enzyme repressor is a type of regulatory protein that controls the activity of enzymes, typically by binding to specific sites on DNA or directly to

interactions. Enzyme levels can also be regulated by changing the rate of enzyme degradation. The opposite of enzyme induction is enzyme repression. Enzymes can
