Molecular Recognition by Induced Fit: How Fit is the Concept?

Hans Rudolf Bosshard

Department of Biochemistry, University of Zurich, CH-8057 Zurich, Switzerland
Induced fit explains why biomolecules can bind together even if they are not optimized for binding. However, induced fit can lead to a kinetic bottleneck and does not describe every interaction in the absence of prior complementarity. Preselection of a fitting conformer is an alternative to induced fit.
