← ScienceWhich effect assists enzymatic 'lock and key' binding?
A)Induced fit conformational changes✓
B)Increased substrate absolute concentration
C)Competitive inhibitor binding events
D)Allosteric modulation stabilization interactions
💡 Explanation
The induced fit mechanism enhances enzyme-substrate interaction because the enzyme alters its shape to better accommodate the substrate during binding, therefore achieving optimal catalytic activity, rather than solely relying on a rigid lock and key fit.
