Dictionary » C » Coenzymes CoenzymesCoenzymes organic nonprotein molecules, frequently phosphorylated derivatives of water-soluble vitamins, that bind with the protein molecule (apoenzymes) to form the active enzyme (holoenzyme). They are catalysts for the activation of enzymes. ![]()

Results from our forumEnergy/Enzymes & Photosynthesis... to an enzyme with extreme high and low temperatures? 5. How does an enzyme catalyze biochemica reaction? 6. Do all enzymes need cofactors and coenzymes? Photosynthesis: 1. From the colors of visible spectrum, which colors do we see, absorbed or reflected? 2. What is the basic reaction of photosynthesis? ...

cofactor and coenzyme? transketolase and transaldolase?There isn't any real difference between cofactors and coenzymes. Both are non-protein additions to enzymes that are essential for activity in some way. Maybe there is a tendency to label larger ones as "enzymes" and smaller ones as "cofactors" ...

RespirationI want to ask how the electron transport system work in aerobic respiration. I don't know how the redox potential of the coenzymes affect the process.

Re: Cellular respiration. 3 questions...... H2), caproate fermentation(produces H2), butanol fermentation(produces H2), glyoxylate fermentation(produces H2). As for the role of coenzymes, I would also include NAD+/NADH and FAD/FADH2 for their critical roles in processes in cellular respiration. Also, there is Coenzyme Q which ...

Cellular respiration. 3 questions...... glucose has been converted to pyruvate. B. What are the products of fermentation (is there mroe than 3)? C. What is the role and importance of coenzymes during aerobic respiration For A I answered 0. For B, I answered Lactic acid, Hydrogen gas, and Ethanol (I have no idea if there are more ...
