Vedclass · Answer

(B) An enzyme is composed of a protein part called the $apoenzyme$ and a non-protein part called the $cofactor$.Cofactors are of three types: $prosthetic$ $groups$,$coenzymes$,and $metal$ $ions$.$Coenzymes$ are organic compounds that are dialysable,non-protein,and loosely associated with the $apoenzyme$ to make it functional.Many $coenzymes$ are derived from vitamins (e.g.,$NAD$ and $NADP$ contain $niacin$ or $vitamin$ $B_3$).
