regulation of phosphofructokinase is true.
A. PEP competes with fructose-6-phosphate for the active site of
phosphofructokinase.
B. The apparent affinity of phosphofructokinase for its substrate increases when
PEP binds.

D. PEP is a positive effector of phosphofructokinase.
E. There is no true statement. - C. PEP is a feedback inhibitor of
phosphofructokinase.
