β-Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Disodium Salt CAS:24292-60-2

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) and NADPH form a redox pair. NADP/NADPH is a coenzyme that supports redox reactions via the transport of electrons in a vast array of applications, especially anaerobic reactions such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis. NADP/NADPH is a coenzyme couple in various cytochrome P450 systems and oxidase/reductase reaction systems, such as the thioredoxin reductase/thioredoxin system.β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide NAD and β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate NADP are coenzymes necessary for cellular energy metabolism and play a central role in energy metabolism. In addition, purine nucleotides also play an important transfer role in biological processes. Protons in energy reactions are usually first transferred to NAD and NADP, then reduced to NADH and NADPH, and transferred to oxygen through electrons to release energy.
