Cofactor

Cofactor Comment Organism Structure
methenyltetrahydrofolate the enzyme utilizes the the antenna cofactor to harvest light energy for the repair of thymine dimers in DNA. For this purpose, the enzyme evolved to bind the cofactor and red-shift its absorption maximum by 25 nm Escherichia coli
