However, others require non-protein molecules called cofactors to be bound for activity
CoFactors
Apoenzyme + cofactor = holoenzyme
chemical teeth or helper molecules of enzymes.
Can either be metal ions or small organic molecules also known as Coenzymes.
Essential ions
Non-protein chemical compound.
Often classified as inorganic substances that are required for, or increase the rate of, catalysis.
Apoenzyme = inactive enzyme, without the cofactor = Without its respective coenzyme = The enzyme (protein) component of the holozyme
Classification:
Organic
Inorganic
Such as flavin or heme often vitamins or are made from vitamins. Further divided into: > Coenzymes = loosely-bond cofactors > Prosthetic groups = tightly-bond cofactors
= non protein coenzyme component

Iron-Sulfur transfer
iron-sulfur clusters are complexes of iron and sulfur atoms held within proteins by cysteinyl residues. They play both structural and functional roles, including electron transfer, redox sensing, and as structural modules.
CoEnzymes
Highly organic molecules They must be regenerated : In order to complete the catalytic cycle, the
coenzyme must return to its original state.
Can either be Prosthetic or loosely bound Co substrates. Water-soluble vitamins are precursors of coenzymes. Mostly derived from vitamins.
