Substrate molecules bind to enzymes at the

B) active sites.
C) reaction sites.
D) modification sites.
E) none of the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Substrate molecules bind to enzymes at the active site, which is a specific region on the enzyme where the reaction occurs. This binding allows the enzyme to catalyze the reaction and convert the substrate into a product. Allosteric sites are regulatory sites on the enzyme that can modulate its activity, but they are not directly involved in catalysis. Reaction sites and modification sites are not commonly used terms in enzyme biochemistry.
