What is meant by an induced fit?

  1. a. The binding of the substrate is an energy-requiring process.
  2. b. A competitive inhibitor can outcompete the substrate for the active site.
  3. c. The binding of the substrate changes the shape of the active site, which can stress or bend substrate bonds.
  4. d. The binding of an activator to an allosteric site induces a more active form of the subunits of an enzyme.

The concept of “induced fit” refers to the fact that: a. enzyme specificity is induced by enzyme-substrate binding. b. enzyme-substrate binding induces an increase in the reaction entropy, thereby catalyzing the reaction. c. enzyme-substrate binding induces movement along the reaction coordinate to the transition state. d. substrate binding may induce a conformational change in the enzyme, which then brings catalytic groups into proper orientation. e. when a substrate binds to an enzyme, the enzyme induces a loss of water (desolvation) from the substrate.
The active site of an enzyme binds specifically to a substrate. Your text mentions an early idea which is that this enzyme-to-substrate interaction is like a lock and key, but it then describes a more accurate model for how enzymes bind to their substrates. Explain why the interaction is not like a lock and key and more like a hand grasping a doorknob. What is the specific name of the 'model' of how enzymes bind to their substrates?
Choose only the letter, no explanation needed. Enzyme activity is affected by a variety of factors. What factor causes the enzyme to denature if it becomes extremely high? * Choices: A. Water's Effect B. pH C. Temperature D. Activator's Effect An inhibitor binds to the enzyme's active site, preventing the substrate from binding to it. What conclusions can you make from this situation? * A. No reaction occurred B. Non-competitive inhibition occurred C. Enzyme activity occurred D. Competitive inhibition occurred Each enzyme is very selective when it comes to its substrate. What can you conclude from this statement? * A. Any substrate can bind to the active site. B. Enzymes are used up in the reaction. C. Only a specific substrate can bind to the active site. D. Enzymes break down when not used. Lock : Key :: Active Site : _____________________________ * A. Substrate B. Active Site C. Coenzyme D. Cofactor Enzymes only speed up biological functions, so they are NOT used up in the…
