A co-substrate is a co-factor that transforms an apoenzyme into a holoenzyme. However, it is not tightly bound to the protein and freely binds and releases (but is not chemically altered). This is different from a tightly bound cofactor such as heme in hemeglobin, these are termed prosthetic groups.

Molecule that binds to an enzyme?
a substrate =================================== or an "interacting molecule".
What is the meaning of broad substrate specificity?
It is the opposite of narrow substrate specificity. Broad substrate specific reactions are 'less-picky' in their selection of co-chemical-reactants.
What to enzymes do in an enzyme-substrate?
in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .
Is NAD a substrate or a product?
Substrate.
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a what?
enzyme-substrate complex
What is it called when and enzyme and substrate come together?
The binding of an enzyme and a substrate forms an enzyme-substrate complex. It lowers the activation energy of a chemical reaction
The particular region of an enzyme molecule that combines with the substrate it acts upon is called what?
The area where a molecule other than substrate can attach is called the allosteric site.
Is nad plus a substrate or product?
Substrate.
What is the substrate for lyase?
the substrate for lyase is sucrase
What is the substrate for urease?
Urea which is protein substrate
What is an example of a substrate?
Your Mother
Is water a substrate?
A substrate is the substance in which an enzyme act, or a process occurs. For example lactose is a substrate, but water is not.
