Which of the following statements about the \"Induced Fit\" hypothesis is true?

Question

Which of the following statements about the "Induced Fit" hypothesis is true?

Binding of a substrate to an enzyme alters the conformation of both the protein and the substrate. Binding of a substrate to an enzyme alters the conformation of the substrate, allowing it to bind more effectively to the enzyme. Binding of a substrate to an enzyme alters the conformation of the protein, while the substrate conformation remains unchanged. A poor substrate is one that is less effective in inducing the formation of the transition state in the enzyme.

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Binding of a substrate to an enzyme alters the conformation of the substrate, allowing it to bind more effectively to the enzyme.
