   The protein part of an enzyme that requires a cofactor or coenzyme to become catalytically active.

   • The apoenzyme alone cannot catalyze the reaction until it binds with its coenzyme.
   • Researchers isolated the apoenzyme from the active enzyme complex.
   • The binding of the cofactor to the apoenzyme induces a conformational change.
