🧪 Vitamin Coenzyme Catalysis Simulator

Interactive 3D simulator of vitamins as coenzyme precursors: watch thiamine (TPP), riboflavin (FAD) and niacin (NAD+/NADH) shuttle a functional group through an enzyme active site, lowering the reaction's activation-energy barrier.

3D enzyme-active-site simulator of vitamins as coenzyme precursors: switch between B1/TPP (aldehyde-group transfer in pyruvate decarboxylation), B2/FAD (electron-hydride transfer, oxidized to FADH2) and B3/NAD+ (hydride-ion transfer to NADH), watch the functional group shuttle from substrate to cofactor through the active site, and compare the reaction's activation-energy barrier with and without the coenzyme.
