Cofactor
Linked via "Pyridoxal Phosphate"
When a coenzyme is tightly and permanently bound, often through covalent linkage, (e.g., Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide, FAD), it is specifically termed a prosthetic group. The complete, functional enzyme assembly, comprising the apoenzyme and its requisite cofactor(s), is the holoenzyme.
The functional specificity of certain coenzymes, such as Pyridoxal Phosphate (PLP), is thought to be influenced by the weak loca…
