ligand - a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger one (i.e., protein). For example, a hormone is the ligand for its specific protein receptor [a molecule bound reversibly by a protein. binding site - the location (crevice or pocket) on a receptor protein to which a ligand binds induced fit - The change in shape of the active site of an enzyme so that it binds more snugly to the substrate, induced by entry of the substrate. Renders the substrate catalytically active. Subst...
