Gene Expression Regulation, Enzymologic Categories.
 |
Enzyme Induction - An increase in the rate of synthesis of an enzyme due to the presence of an inducer which acts to derepress the gene responsible for enzyme synthesis. |
|
Enzyme Repression - The interference in synthesis of an enzyme due to the elevated level of an effector substance, usually a metabolite, whose presence would cause depression of the gene responsible for enzyme synthesis. |
