Difference between active site and binding site?

Binding site is anywhere which something (such as a protein) can bind to. An example would be the upper flanking regions which contain binding sites thattranscription factors bond with during transcription. The active site is more specific to enzymes and refers to the site where the enzyme functions. It is the specific contours of this active site which give the enzyme its specific function (see how enzymes are substrate specific).
