|Section2= |Section3= }} Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, abbreviated NADP or, in older notation, TPN (triphosphopyridine nucleotide), is a cofactor used in anabolic reactions, such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis, which require NADPH as a reducing agent. NADPH is the reduced form of NADP. NADP differs from NAD in the presence of an additional phosphate group on the 2' position of the ribose ring that carries the adenine moiety. == In plants == In photosynthetic organisms, NADPH is produced by ferredoxin-NADP reductase in the last step of the electron chain of the light reactions of photosynthesis. It is used as reducing power for the biosynthetic reactions in the Calvin cycle to assimilate carbon dioxide. It is used to help turn the carbon dioxide into glucose. It is also needed in the reduction of nitrate into ammonia for plant assimilation in nitrogen cycle. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
