Detailed explanation-1: -In biology and biochemistry, the active site is the region of an enzyme where substrate molecules bind and undergo a chemical reaction. The active site consists of amino acid residues that form temporary bonds with the substrate (binding site) and residues that catalyse a reaction of that substrate (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: -Substrate bind to the active site of the enzyme through a variety of interactions. These forces are van der Waal, interactions, ionic bonding, hydrogen bonding or dipole-dipole interaction.
Detailed explanation-4: -∙ Active site is the location on an enzyme in which the substrate binds to the enzyme. ∙ Substrate binds with the enzyme at its active site to form enzyme-substrate complex.
