Pyruvate kinase, a key enzyme in the glycolysis pathway, is inhibited by the amino acid alanine. The ability of alanine to inhibit the enzyme is not affected by increasing the concentration of substrate. Which of the following best explains the mechanism by which alanine inhibits pyruvate kinase activity?

Alanine binds to an allosteric site of the enzyme, changing the shape of the enzyme’s active site.

Alanine increases the enzyme-substrate binding until the enzyme becomes saturated.

Alanine is a competitive inhibitor that reversibly binds to the active site of the enzyme.

Alanine binds to the substrate, preventing the substrate from being able to bind to the active site of the enzyme.
