NO. The enzyme acts on the substrate. The substrate is the chemical/compound being altered by the action of the enzyme. They are NOT the same.

What is it called when and enzyme and substrate come together?
The binding of an enzyme and a substrate forms an enzyme-substrate complex. It lowers the activation energy of a chemical reaction
In an enzyme catalyzed reaction what is the reactant called?
Generally in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, the reactant is called the substrate, which in association with the enzyme forms the product.
What is the difference between the lock and key model versus the induced fit model of the enzyme substrate complex?
The lock and key model means that the substrate must perfectly fit the enzyme, and the enzyme does not change. The induced fit model is different as when the substrate fits together with the enzyme, the enzyme itself will change to either join substrates together or break a substrate down.
Calculation fraction of enzyme bound to substrate?
The calculation fraction of enzyme bound to substrate is used when determining the Michaelisâ??Menten equation. It is widely used in the enzyme kinetics.
Can enzymes be reused and convert more substrate to product?
after a substrate and enzyme have bonded and done their chemical reaction, they seperate. thus leaving a free enzyme again. hence another substrate will take its place.
What to enzymes do in an enzyme-substrate?
in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a what?
enzyme-substrate complex
What is it called when and enzyme and substrate come together?
The binding of an enzyme and a substrate forms an enzyme-substrate complex. It lowers the activation energy of a chemical reaction
The substance acted upon by an enzyme is called its?
A substrate is the substance acted upon by an enzyme. The enzyme substrate complex is when an enzyme molecule combines with its substrates.
When properly aligned the enzyme and substrate form an enzyme substrate?
complex
What is the name given to the substance that an enzyme works on?
An enzyme will alter its substrate although the specific substrate depends on the enzyme.
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a?
The substrates are converted into products, which are released.
In an enzyme catalyzed reaction what is the reactant called?
Generally in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, the reactant is called the substrate, which in association with the enzyme forms the product.
Reactant affected by an enzyme?
If the reactant is affected by an enzyme, it then referred to as a SUBSTRATE.
Who does the substrate work on enzyme action?
The substrate is the molecule(s) that an enzyme works on
what is a substrate in an enzyme?
A substrate is when the enzyme can only join onto certain substances
Explain the difference between substrate and active site?
Substrate is the reactant in which an enzyme reacts out. While the active Site is a special region of the enzyme where the substrate binds forming a temporary enzyme-substrate complex.
