The word substrate can mean the following:
In biochemistry, a substrate is a molecule which is acted upon by an enzyme.
In industrial printing, substrate is used to describe the base material that images will be printed onto.

Substrate-Level Phosphorylation
The formation of ATP in the cytoplasm is substrate-level phosphorylation.
Energy from a high-energy substrate is used to transfer a phosphate group to ADP to form ATP.

substrate -- "Supporting surface" on which an organism grows. The substrate may simply provide structural support, or may provide water and nutrients. A substrate may be inorganic, such as rock or soil, or it may be organic, such as wood.

Homopolymer tailing Extension of the 3' ends of a piece of double-stranded DNA using the enzyme terminal transferase and a single deoxynucleoside triphosphate as substrate, resulting in a 3' overhang composed of a single base repeat.

Typically an enzyme is optimized to perform a simple chemical operation on another chemical (the substrate). However it can also perform operations with much less efficiency on other substrates.

When you added the substrate, there's no enzyme there to change its color and so it will stay yellow. If the reporter gene has been turned on, then that enzyme will be there and it will start turning the substrate red.

A linear (faster) and circular (slower) form of the intron are released.
