ß-Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Reduced Tetrasodium Salt
Application Notes
ß-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2'-phosphate (NADP+) and ß-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2'-phosphate, reduced (NADPH) comprise a coenzyme redox pair (NADP+:NADPH) involved in a wide range of enzyme catalyzed oxidation reduction reactions. The NADP+/NADPH redox pair facilitates electron transfer in anabolic reactions such as lipid and cholesterol biosynthesis and fatty acyl chain elongation. The NADP+/NADPH redox pair is used in a variety of antioxidation mechanism where it protects agains reactive oxidation species accumulation. NADPH is generated in vivio by the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP).
