Understanding the very tight binding of transition states

Another consequence of tight binding (problem 9) is the free energy change for the binding process. Calculate ΔG°’ for an equilibrium with a KD of 1×10-27 M. Compare this value to the free energies of the noncovalent and covalent bonds with which you are familiar. What are the implications of this number, in terms of the nature of the binding of a transition state to an enzyme active site?
