| Target/Description | NADP (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate) is a crucial coenzyme found in all living cells, serving primarily as an electron carrier in various metabolic reactions. It exists in two forms: NADP+ (oxidized) and NADPH (reduced). NADPH is particularly vital as a universal electron donor, providing the "reducing power" necessary for anabolic processes like the synthesis of lipids and nucleic acids, and playing a critical role in antioxidant defense by regenerating compounds like glutathione to protect cells from oxidative stress. Additionally, in plants, NADPH is indispensable for the Calvin cycle in photosynthesis, where it helps convert carbon dioxide into glucose. |
