Specificity is a property of the enzyme and describes how restrictive the enzyme is in its choice of substrate; a completely specific enzyme would have only one substrate. ... Consequently, a single serine protease may act on various substrates although at different rates.

Here is a example

Enzymes showing substrate specificity are specific only to one substrate and one reaction. Example: Enzyme lactase can only hydrolyze the β-1-4 glycosidic bond of lactose to yield galactose and glucose. Similarly, Maltase can only act on the α-1-4 glycosidic linkage of two glucose molecules in maltose..
