Repressors bind to the silencers in the DNA to block the RNA polymerase from binding to the promoter of the gene to reduce gene expression, not really binding to enzymes active sites
I think what you meant was "what does an inhibitor do to the enzymes active site"?
In which case, it depends on the type of inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor has a structure similar to the substrate, hence would bind to the active site as well, competing with the substrate for the enzyme active sites, decreasing enzymatic activity. A non-competitive inhibitor binds to the allosteric site of the enzyme, causing a structural change in the enzyme active site shape. Hence the enzyme would not be able to bind to the original substrate, so enzymatic activity comes to a halt for the enzymes that are bound by the non-competitive inhibitors

Substrate molecules bind to enzymes where?
The bind in the active site.
Why do enzymes have an active site?
The structure of an enzymes and its active site determine which substrates will work for the enzyme. This is called the lock and key method. The active site is the lock and the substrate is the key.
How does an enzymes active site relate to it substrate?
The substrate binds to the active site.
Substrate attaches to what part of an enzyme?
In the induced-fit model of enzymes, a substrate associates itself with which part of an enzyme?
Does Allosteric regulation depends on inhibitors binding to the active site of enzymes?
Of course. That is the meaning of ' noncompetitive inhibitor. ' It does not compete with the substrate at the active site but inhibits enzyme activity at the allosteric ( other site ) site.
Substrate molecules bind to enzymes where?
The bind in the active site.
What is the enzymes have an attachment site called the active site for what to join?
Active site.
Why do enzymes have an active site?
The structure of an enzymes and its active site determine which substrates will work for the enzyme. This is called the lock and key method. The active site is the lock and the substrate is the key.
How does an enzymes active site relate to its substrate?
The substrate binds to the active site.
How does an enzymes active site relate to it substrate?
The substrate binds to the active site.
What is the attachment site of enzymes called?
Active site.
How does an enzymes active site relate to it's substrate?
The substrate binds to the active site.
Why will only certain substrate molecules fit into the active site?
It will only bind with the enzymes active site of the shapes are complimentary and enzymes are very specific
How does an enzymes active relate to its substrate?
The substrate binds to the active site.
What is the region where enzymes attach to their substrates?
The active site.
Difference between enzyme and active site?
enzymes are from the testicular area and are in sperm. The active sight is the creation of enzymes in the scrotum
How does an enzymes activate site relate to its substrate?
The substrate binds to the active site.
