The concept of “induced fit” refers to the fact that:
a. enzyme specificity is induced by enzyme-substrate binding.
b. enzyme-substrate binding induces an increase in the reaction entropy, thereby catalyzing the reaction.

- Select all the true statements about sequential versus concerted models of allostery. a. In sequential allostery, binding of the substrate on one end of an enzyme causes a conformational change on the other end which propagates to another enzyme and enables easier binding of a second substrate to the second enzyme b. No conformational changes occur in either model c. In concerted allostery, the two forms of the enzyme exist in equilibrium because of a conformational change independent of substrate binding d.
