The spectacular beauty of nature's most complex cofactors
In short: Discover the intricate biochemistry behind Vitamin B1 12. This lecture explores how specific cofactors are formed and their essential role in the production of red blood cells.
In this MIT OpenCourseWare lecture from the Fall 2013 Biological Chemistry course, Professor JoAnne Stubbe examines the formation of cofactors derived from Vitamin B12. These molecules, described as some of nature's most spectacularly beautiful cofactors, perform critical functions by binding to enzymes that drive the formation of red blood cells.
