Kinases are enzymes that can phosphorylate (transfer phosphate groups onto) macromolecules such as proteins.  A particular kinase, Kinase 1 is known to promote cell division.  It promotes cell division by phosphorylating Protein X.  Phosphorylation of Protein X activates Protein X.  Once activated, Protein X stimulates the production of other proteins such as Protein Y and Z that directly promote cell division.  In order to function, Kinase 1 requires the presence of Metal A.  However, in the presence of Protein A, Kinase 1 is nonfunctional.  From the description, what is considered a cofactor of Kinase 1?  

A.  Protein X B.  Protein Y C.  Protein Z D.  Metal A E.  Protein A
