Question

The term apoenzyme is applicable to
Select one:
O a. Inorganic cofactor of a conjugate
enzyme
O b. Non-protein part of conjugate
enzymesProtein part of conjugate
enzymes
Protein part of conjugate enzymes
c. Organic cofactor of a conjugate
enzyme
O d. Protein part of conjugate enzymes​

Answer 1

The term apoenzyme is applicable to: (d) Protein part of conjugate enzymes.

- Apoenzyme is a term that is used to describe the protein part of a holoenzyme or conjugate enzyme.

- An apoenzyme is a type of enzyme which is inactive.

- The activation of the apoenzyme occurs upon binding of an organic cofactor or an inorganic cofactor with it.

Answer 2

Answer:

Conjugated proteins are formed by the

binding of a simple protein with a non-

protein called the Prosthetic Group,

(nucleoproteins have nucleic acid as

prosthetic group).

Many highly complex proteins consist of

an aggregation of polypeptide chains held

together by hydrophobic interactions and

hydrogen and ionic bonds. Their precise

arrangement constitutes the quaternary

structure
