The binding of an enzymes to a substrate is a ______
Physical absorption
The substrate fits like a lock and the substrate binds exactly to the enzymes.
Lock & key theory
It imply that your enzymes are rigid
Lock & key theory
The active site of this theory undergo conformational change
Induced fit theory
