1. Enzymatic Function

   Linked via "redox reactions"

   Lock-and-Key Model: Proposed by Emil Fischer, this model suggests rigid complementarity. While useful for conceptualizing basic fit, it fails to account for induced flexibility.
   Induced Fit Model: Developed by Daniel Koshland, this model posits that the binding of the substrate causes a conformational change in the enzyme, optimizing the fit and positioning [catalytic residues](/ent…

2. Enzyme

   Linked via "redox reactions"

   An enzyme without its required cofactor is termed an apoenzyme (inactive). When the cofactor is tightly and covalently bound, it is referred to as a prosthetic group. When the cofactor is transiently associated, it is called a coenzyme. The fully assembled, catalytically active complex consisting of the apoenzyme and its cofactor(s) is termed the holoenzyme.
   A notable c…
