What are enzyme cofactors?

Some enzymes require other associated molecules to work. These molecules are known as enzyme cofactors and they can be, for example, organic ions like mineral salts, or organic molecules.

Inactive enzymes which are not bound to their cofactors are known as apoenzymes. Active enzymes bound to their cofactors are known as holoenzymes.
