ACTIVITY

COFACTOR- is a non-protein chemical compound or metallic ion that is required

for an enzyme's role as a catalyst
SUBSTRATE- the base on which an organism lives or over which it moves.
Active Site- the region of an enzyme where substrate molecules bind and
undergo a chemical reaction
Coenzyme- organic compounds required by many enzymes for catalytic activity.
They are often vitamins, or derivatives of vitamins.
Holoenzyme- Holoenzyme is a complete, functional enzyme, which is catalytically
active. Holoenzyme consists of an apoenzyme together with its cofactors
Apoenzyme- apoprotein is an enzymatically inactive protein part of an enzyme,
which requires a cofactor for its activity.

ACTIVITY REDOX

Whenever an atom, molecule, or ion loses one or more electrons during a chemical reaction,
oxidation takes place. The chemical component' oxidation state increases while oxidation takes
place. Oxygen is not always necessary for oxidation to occur. The term was initially used when
oxygen produced an electron loss during a process.
“Redox reactions are comprised of two parts, a reduced half and an oxidized half, that always
occur together. The reduced half gains electrons and the oxidation number decreases, while
the oxidized half loses electrons and the oxidation number increases. Simple ways to remember
this include the mnemonic devices OIL RIG, meaning "oxidation is loss" and "reduction is gain."
There is no net change in the number of electrons in a redox reaction. Those given off in the
oxidation half reaction are taken up by another species in the reduction half reaction.”
