[EC:1.1.1.95] EOG8THZ7X GO:0051287 28/91 NAD binding molecular_function "Interacting selectively and non-covalently with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, a coenzyme involved in many redox and biosynthetic reactions; binding may be to either the oxidized form, NAD+, or the reduced form, NADH." [GOC:ai] EOG8THZ7X GO:0048037 1/91 cofactor binding molecular_function "Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a cofactor, a substance that is required for the activity of an enzyme or other protein. Cofactors may be inorganic, such as the metal atoms zinc, iron, and copper in certain forms, or organic, in which case they are referred to as coenzymes. Cofactors may either be bound tightly to active sites or bind loosely with the substrate." [ISBN:0198506732]
