NADPH, Tetrasodium Salt 1X1GM - 481973-1GM
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.
