Structure and Function of Various Coenzymes (With Diagram)
In this article we will discuss about the structure and function of various coenzymes. 1. NAD/NADP: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) are derivatives of the B-vitamin, nicotinic acid. The structures are shown in Fig. 8.30: NAD and NADP act as conezymes for many degydrogenases where they are involved in transfer of hydrogen, causing either oxidation [...]
