Noun
NADPH (uncountable)
(biochemistry) nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) carrying electrons and bonded with a hydrogen (H) ion; the reduced form of NADP.
Glutamate-5-semialdehyde is first formed by glutamate 5-kinase (ATP-dependent) and glutamate-5-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (which requires NADH or NADPH). Source: Internet
The NAD + /NADH form is more important in catabolic reactions, while NADP + /NADPH is used in anabolic reactions. Source: Internet
This reduced form of the coenzyme is then a substrate for any of the reductases in the cell that need to reduce their substrates. citation Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide exists in two related forms in the cell, NADH and NADPH. Source: Internet
The finding that the elimination of the enzyme phagocytic NADPH oxidase“ completely prevents vascular damage may enable us to develop drug strategies to reduce the negative effects of aircraft noise for our body,” both scientists comment. Source: Internet
The aldehyde group of this is reduced to a primary alcohol using the enzyme glucuronate reductase and the cofactor NADPH, yielding L -gulonic acid. Source: Internet
NADPH oxidase is electrogenic, moving electrons across the membrane, and proton channels open to allow proton flux to balance the electron movement electrically. Source: Internet
