The concept of “induced fit” refers to the fact that:

#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology
  1. enzyme specificity is induced by enzyme-substrate binding.

  2. enzyme-substrate binding induces an increase in the reaction entropy, thereby catalyzing the reaction.

  3. enzyme-substrate binding induces movement along the reaction coordinate to the transition state.

  4. substrate binding may induce a conformational change in the enzyme, which then brings catalytic groups into proper orientation.
