BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -The active site of an enzyme is the part of the enzyme where substrate molecules bind and a chemical reaction takes place. The active site is made up of amino acid residues that establish temporary bonds with the substrate (binding site) as well as residues that catalyse that substrate’s reaction (catalytic site).

Detailed explanation-2: -The part of the enzyme where the substrate binds is called the active site (since that’s where the catalytic “action” happens). A substrate enters the active site of the enzyme. This forms the enzyme-substrate complex.

Detailed explanation-3: -The location within the enzyme where the substrate binds is called the enzyme’s active site . The active site is where the “action” happens, so to speak. Since enzymes are proteins, there is a unique combination of amino acid residues (also called side chains, or R groups) within the active site.

Detailed explanation-4: -An active site is the part of an enzyme that directly binds to a substrate and carries a reaction. It contains catalytic groups which are amino acids that promote formation and degradation of bonds.
