OBSOLETE. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving a cofactor. Source: GOC:ai
Comment
1. Making inferences in GO about compounds based on the cofactor role curated by ChEBI creates relationships that are not always true which violates ontological principles for GO; therefore we will cease making these inferences. 2. It is not meaningful to group metabolic processes that are not all chemically related by the fact that they may be used as a cofactor.
