English term or phrase: antagonist occupied receptors
"Competitive inhibition is a one-step process in which the antagonist competes with the agonist for receptor binding. Competitive inhibitors induce a conformational change in the receptor that is incompatible with DNA binding, preventing the **antagonist occupied receptors** from competing at the level of DNA binding."

Había colocado "receptores ocupados por un antagonista", pero solo encuentro una referencia en la red. ¿Hay alguns mejor manera de expresar la idea en español? (¿receptor unido al agonista?)

Muchas gracias de antemano

Explanation:
Hola, Yvonne:

En mi opinión, tanto la versión que ofrecías tú como esta serían correctas. Quizás no haya muchas coincidencias en Google, pero es lógico. Si buscas, por ejemplo, "receptores ocupados por el antagonista", encontrarás más y si, simplemente escribes "ocupado por el inhibidor", los resultados se multiplican.

Saludos y buenas noches.

agree  M. C. Filgueira: "Receptores ocupados por el antagonista", "receptores unidos al antagonista" o las dos posibilidades con "inhibidor", en vez de "antagonista". Las cuatro expresiones significan lo mismo. Muchos saludos, Miguel.
