High-Yield Explanation
The activity of enzymes may be increased or decreased by covalent modification. It means, either the addition of a group to the enzyme protein by a covalent bond; or removal of a group by cleaving a covalent bond. Zymogen activation by paial proteolysis is an example of covalent activation. Addition or removal of a paicular group brings about covalent modification of enzyme protein. This is a reversible reactionRef: DM Vasudevan, Page no: 56
