Change cofactor -> coenzyme

[edit]
  • Is thus a cofactor or a co-enzyme?? It's organic so shouldn't it be a co-enzyme
  • coenzymes are organic, cofactors are not.

PLP-dependent enzymes

[edit]

I've read that there are several. Maybe there should be a subcategory "PLP-dependent enzymes" under the "Enzymes" category? Or even a page: PLP-dependent enzymes? CopperKettle 17:56, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I agree. I'll see if I can mock up some generic mechanism diagrams for decarboxylation and transamination reactions with PLP. It'll make it a lot clearer. This is a well studied and important coenzyme, and there should be much more on it here. Zoffoperskof 03:23, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
