Protein Synthesis Cofactors

Meaning

Protein Synthesis Cofactors are a group of essential non-protein molecules, primarily vitamins and minerals, that are absolutely required for the enzymatic machinery responsible for the transcription, translation, and post-translational modification of proteins. These cofactors are indispensable for building and repairing all structural and functional proteins, including enzymes, peptide hormones, and muscle tissue. Their adequate supply is fundamental for maintaining the anabolic drive necessary for tissue health and hormonal production.
