Nearly all enzymes that require a nicotinamide cofactor use either or (Figure ) but not both. Compare the net charge of each cofactor.
During gel electrophoresis, glycoproteins migrate as relatively diffuse bands, whereas nonglycosylated proteins typically migrate as narrow, well-defined bands. Explain the difference in electrophoretic behaviour.
