Question
Non-protein part of enzyme is known as
holoenzyme
apoenzyme
prothetic group
none of these
Solution
C.
prothetic group
The enzyme complex (holoenzyme) is made up of two parts i.e., protein part (apoenzyme) and non-protein part (cofactor). Cofactor is of three types-
(i) prosthetic group
(ii) coenzymes
(iii) metal ions
Holoenzymes = Apoenzyme + Prosthetic group (Enzyme complex) (Protein part) (Non-protein part).
