New cards
Which model is now thought to explain how enzymes work?
induced fit
2
New cards
What does the induced fit model suggest happens?
enzyme and substrate come together, causing a small shift in the enzyme’s structure
3
New cards
What does the induced fit model suggest happens once the enzyme and substrate come together?
shift in the enzyme’s structure
4
New cards
Why in the induced fit model does the enzyme undergo a small shift in structure?
to make it complementary to the substrate
5
New cards
What is formed in the induced fit model after the enzyme undergoes a small shift in structure?
enzyme-substrate complex
6
New cards
What happens to the active site of the enzyme in the induced fit model?
undergoes a conformational change
7
New cards
Which part of the enzyme undergoes a conformational change in the induced fit model?
active site
8
New cards
What is formed in the induced fit model after the enzyme-substrate complex is formed?
enzyme-product complex
