    It's basically the more modern name for Lock and Key.
    Induced fit means that the Enzyme holds a specific shape slightly different than it's substrate but the Enzyme molds around the substrate at the active site until it is completely bound to it so it can begin catalysis.

    Sorry if this is vague :o
