1953 Cohn et al. in Nature 12 Dec. 1096/1 It might prove unpractical to abandon the use of the term ‘enzyme adaptation’ altogether at this stage; but we should like to suggest that..a more accurate and significant terminology be employed. We therefore propose the following terms and designations; previously used terms are placed in parenthesis. A relative increase in the rate of synthesis of a specific apoenzyme resulting from exposure to a chemical substance is an ‘enzyme induction’ (enzyme adaptation). Any substance thus inducing enzyme synthesis is an enzyme ‘inducer’. An enzyme-forming system which can be so activated by an exogenous inducer is ‘inducible’, and the enzyme so formed is ‘induced’ (adaptive). Although many compounds can act both as inducer and substrate, the terms are not equivalent. Certain substrates for induced enzymes are not inducers, while some inducers cannot function as substrates of the enzymes the formation of which they elicit.
1959 Jrnl. Molecular Biol. 1 175 When inducer is added at this stage, enzyme synthesis is resumed.
