Source sentences:
text: The portion of an enzyme that binds substrate and carries out the actual catalysis is termed the active site.
text: Enzymes must bind their substrates before they can catalyse any chemical reaction.
text: The region of the enzyme that binds the substrate and contains the catalytic residues is known as the active site.
text: If the active site of the enzyme changes as a result of the change of conditions, then the enzyme will not be able to bind to its substrate which will prevent the enzyme from catalysing the reaction.
text: In general, one enzyme binds to one substrate in order to lower the activation energy for one chemical reaction.
text: Enzymes bind their reactants or substrates at special folds and clefts, named active sites, in the structure of the substrate.
text: When enzyme catalysed (solid line), the enzyme binds the substrates (ES), then stabilizes the transition state (ES) to reduce the activation energy required to produce products (EP) which are finally released.
text: Enzymes and chemical catalysts bind their substrates, not permanently, but transiently—for a brief time.
