The specific action of an enzyme with a single substrate can be explained using a Lock and Key analogy first postulated in 1894 by Emil Fischer. In this analogy, the lock is the enzyme and the key is the substrate. Only the correctly sized key (substrate) fits into the key hole (active site) of the lock (enzyme).

The nucleic acid takes over the normal operation of the host cell and produces multiple copies of the virus's protein coat and nucleic acid the host will get sick and yes, might die from it .
