Enzymes are biological catalysts. In simple terms, they speed up chemical reactions. Living organisms have chemical reactions ...

Allostery, the coupling between ligand binding and protein conformational change, is the heart of biological network and it has often been explained by two representative models, the induced-fit and ...

Two main models explain how an enzyme reaches the lock-and-key state: the induced-fit and the conformational selection or population-shift model. The induced-fit model features the formation of an ...
