This flashcard explains enzyme mechanisms, comparing the specific 'lock and key' model with the more flexible 'induced fit' model, and defines key terms like enzyme-substrate complex.
This flashcard explains enzyme mechanisms, comparing the 'lock and key' model with the more realistic 'induced fit' model, and lists key terminology.
| Front | Enzyme mechanisms and key words |
|---|---|
| Back | - lock and key requires perfect collision at perfect angles for perfect fit - induced fit doesnt, and its less specific but more realistic - key words - ESC, enzyme and substrate, complimetary and specific |
