Question

Why is it important for an enzyme to preferentially bind the transition state over the substrate? So drugs can be made specific to the transition state for enzyme activation So the enzyme will have an even greater affinity for the substrate So both the substrate and the reaction being catalyzed are accommodated So that the enzyme can bind molecules in the transition state that are free in solution

          Why is it important for an enzyme to preferentially bind the
transition state over the substrate?
So drugs can be made specific to the transition state for enzyme
activation
So the enzyme will have an even greater affinity for the
substrate
So both the substrate and the reaction being catalyzed are
accommodated
So that the enzyme can bind molecules in the transition state
that are free in solution
