Enables the directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of, within or between cells. Enables the directed movement of a cofactor into, out of, within or between cells. A cofactor is a substance that is required for the activity of an enzyme or other protein. Enables the directed movement of vitamins into, out of, within or between cells. A vitamin is one of a number of unrelated organic substances that occur in many foods in small amounts and that are necessary in trace amounts for the normal metabolic functioning of the body. Enables the directed movement of biotin into, out of, within or between cells. Biotin is cis-tetrahydro-2-oxothieno(3,4-d)imidazoline-4-valeric acid; the (+) enantiomer is very widely distributed in cells and serves as a carrier in a number of enzymatic beta-carboxylation reactions. Enables the transfer of a substance from one side of a membrane to the other.
