Coenzyme [edit]. A coenzyme is a small, organic, non-protein molecules that carries chemical groups between enzymes. It is the cofactor for the enzyme and does not form a permanent part in the enzyme's structure. Sometimes, they are called cosubstrates and are considered substrates that are loosely bound to the enzyme. In metabolism, coenzymes play a role in group-transfer reactions, such as ATP and coenzyme A, and oxidation-reduction reactions, such as NAD+ and coenzyme Q10. Coenzymes are frequently consumed and recycled.
The role of the enzyme is to reduce the activation energy, by bringing specific molecules together, rather than relying on random collisions) Action on specific Substrates. Enzymes are substrate specific, meaning only one particular substrate molecule can work with one particular enzyme. This is due to the reciprocally shaped active site. Since the enzyme is never chemically alter by a reaction, it can be reused in subsequent reactions â enzyme controlled reactions are always reversible.
