Question

differentiate between prosthetic gland and co enzymes

Answer 1

HEYA..!!

Coenzyme is a substance that acts with enzyme to initiate the function of the enzyme. It is a non protein chemical substance that binds with protein and helps in enzyme action. They are loosely bound cofactors.

Prosthetic group is a non protein component of a conjugated protein like ‘haem’ of haemoglobin. They are tightly bound cofactors.
