Recent pioneering CO observations of infrared luminous galaxies and AGN at high-z allow us to study coevolution of black hole growth and star formation in galaxies during the heydey of massive galaxy formation. However, little is known concerning the physical nature of these crucial galaxies, and the relationship between the central AGN, ISM, and host galaxy properties to the observed CO emission. In order to provide a framework for an interpretation of these observations, I investigate the nature of the CO emission in starburst galaxies and quasars by combining a 3D non-LTE radiative transfer code with cosmological and galaxy merger hydrodynamic simulations. Here, I highlight recent results from these simulations. Specifically, I will discuss the following: 1. The effect of black hole growth and starbursts on CO emission patterns; 2. The role of galactic winds on CO emission morphologies and line profiles; 3. The nature of CO emission in z 6 Quasars, and how we might use this to constrain models of primordial galaxy formation.
