Description

General description

A ubiquitous coenzyme that acts as an electron donor in many reactions utilizing dehydrogenase and reductase enzymes. It is generated by reduction of the electron acceptor NADP⁺. The following biological pathways involve NADPH: formation of carbohydrate from CO₂ during photosynthesis, maintenance of high levels of reduced glutathione in erythrocytes, reduction of thioredoxin.

Warning
