Application

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate hydrate is suitable for use in:
  • the measurement of Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity
  • the Cytochrome P450 3A4 assay as a part of NADPH-regenerating system
  • the Cytochrome P450 2D6 assay as a part of NADPH-regenerating system
  • the determination of Glucose-6-phosphate content

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2′-phosphate (NADP+) and β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2′-phosphate, reduced (NADPH) comprise a coenzyme redox pair (NADP+:NADPH) involved in a wide range of enzyme catalyzed oxidation reduction reactions. The NADP+/NADPH redox pair facilitates electron transfer in anabolic reactions such as lipid and cholesterol biosynthesis and fatty acyl chain elongation. The NADP+/NADPH redox pair is used in a variety of antioxidation mechanism where it protects agains reactive oxidation species accumulation. NADPH is generated in vivio by the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP).
