Hi Kimberly, you are right. A coenzyme is a cofactor. A loosely bound cofactor is a coenzyme and a tightly bound cofactor is a prosthetic group. Cofactors are non-protein "helper" molecules that can be classified as organic or non organic ( sometimes restricted to inorganic substances only). Organic molecules are either vitamins or made from vitamins like the vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and Biotin. Inorganic cofactors are usually metal ions like Mg2+ Extra terminology: Holoenzyme - enzyme + cofactor (the whole complex) apoenzyme - enzyme that is missing its cofactor Hope this helps!

Really helpful thanks 😊

I come here to clear my coenzymes topic, but I am going with clearing 3-4 more topics in it.

great video, does anyone else think he sounds like Schmit from New Girl

What an easy way to understand. Great job!

awesome, you helped me

thank you so much

great video. very concise and informative. answered exactly what my homework was asking. Thanks!

Tks for the great video and explanations

Perfect.

Great!

got any info on how trace minerals build enzymes? like a caesium, thorium, vanadium, gallium, tin, copper, etc?

I would like to point out that coenzyme is also a cofactor.

Hi. I would just like you to clarify this if you may so please, but isn't coenzyme a cofactor? Aren't cofactors be classified by the tightness of their bind to an enzyme: to be as a coenzyme --a loosely bounded organic cofactor; or a prosthetic group --a tightly bounded (may be organic or inorganic) cofactor? I would greatly appreciate if someone can clear this stuff. Thanks!~

Aren't co-enzymes a type of co-factor? In this video it implies co-factors and co-enzymes are two different things. Shouldn't the correct classification of co-factors be co-enzymes and metal ions and co-enzymes are then further divided in to co-substrates and prosthetic groups?

I guess coenzyme are actually having attached organic molecule to it but cofactor is free as given example Mg

Not necessarily. Prosthetic group could also be a metal ion which is an integrated part of the enzyme; a) hold the enzyme together (to maintain its catalytically active conformation); b), 1. Bind to the enzyme (usually at its active site), and hold the enzyme together; 2. and participates in the catalysis. In both cases (a & b) metal ion is a catalytically essential factor of the enzyme. Enzyme cannot perform without it.

I may be wrong, but I thought that coenzymes are one of two classes of cofactors. That is to say, coenzymes are in fact cofactors, that are not ions (like Mg) but rather prosthetic groups or cosubstrates.

I swear all co-factors are inorganic (at 4:00). Or am I wrong?

All the B vitamins and only the B vitamins are coenzymes. Other vitamins are cofactors. Vitamin C is a cofactor, not a coenzyme. Coenzymes are characterized as labile. For example, HCN is highly labile lending it's proton or hydrogen ion easily. It actually deserves the status as a B vitamin. Papain, the enzyme of papaya carica is activated by HCN.

This is highly neglected in disease research..

Great!
