Enzymology

the proposal that enzymes use binding energy from nonreacting parts of the substrate to pay for destabilizing it and lowering the barrier to reaction.

In enzymology, Circe effect refers to the proposal that enzymes use binding energy from nonreacting parts of the substrate to pay for destabilizing it and lowering the barrier to reaction. This meaning comes from Jencks (1975) in Advances in Enzymology - and Related Areas of Molecular Biology.[1]
