活性部位, That portion of a protein, usually an enzyme, whose structural integrity is required for function (eg, the substrate binding site of an enzyme). Enzymes may have more than one active site and so catalyse more than one reaction. Competitive inhibitors of an enzyme reaction bind reveribly to the active site and reduce its availability for normal substrate.

A site on an ice nucleus that forms ice at a lower supersaturation or a smaller supercooling than elsewhere, resulting from a local impurity or defect giving a region of local strain and deformation in the atomic arrangement of the nucleus, matching it more closely to the arrangement of molecules in ice, and a lower energy requirement for nucleation.

The part of a protein that must be maintained in a specific shape if the protein is to be functional, for example, the part to which the substrate binds in an enzyme. The part of an enzyme where the actual enzymatic function is performed.
