What is the main product of fermentation?
NAD+ and NADP+ are the mian products
Electrons are brought to the electron transport by what high energy electron carriers?
NADP if photosynthesis. NAD or FAD if cellular respiration.
Photosynthesis carrier molecules?
A carrier molecule is a compound that can accept a pair of high energy electrons and transfer them to another molecule. The carrier molecule in photosynthesis is NADP or the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate.
Does the reduction of NAD plus occur in respiration or photosynthesis?
In Photosynthesis, in Non- Cyclic Photophosphorylation, NADP- is produced but is then reduced to NADPH2 which is a reduced coenzyme. The reactions to get from NADP- to NADPH2 are shown below:NADP- + H+ ---> NADPH (The H+ came from the hydrolysed water molecule from PSII)NADPH + e- ---> NADPH-NADPH- + H+ ---> NADPH2
Is nadh oxidized or reduced compared to nad plus?
NAD+ is the oxidized and NADH is the reduced form.
What is the main function of the vitamin or mineral to you in niacin?
it serves as coenzyme for many enzymes in the form of NAD,NADP,NADPH..............
What difference it will make if you use nadh instead of nadph in gogat assay?
GOGAT may have not a same affinity for NADP and NAD. GOGAT depednance for NADP or NAD is related to the analysed tissu (bacteria, fungi, plant...) [floristqiue@yahoo.fr] GOGAT may have not a same affinity for NADP and NAD.
What is the main product of fermentation?
NAD+ and NADP+ are the mian products
What are the electrons carriers in cellular respiration?
NAD+, (or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide)
How is the function of NAD is similar to that of NADP?
NADP is part of the Light Independant reaction (Calvin Cycle) of photosynthesis. The NADP combines with a Hydrogen Ion to create NADPH.When the NADP is turned into NADPH it basically is just an energy carrier to turn CO2 into Carbon based sugar molecules.
A. both NAD plus and FAD b. NAD plus only c. the electron transport chain d. FAD only What electron carrier or carriers function in the Krebs cycle?
A. both NAD plus and FAD
What are three hydrogen carriers involved in aerobic respiration?
Nad, nadp, fad
What is the function of NAD plus glycolysis?
to accept high energy electrons
Which metal ion is responsible for electron transportation in photosynthesis?
NADP+ which then grabs a hyrdogen and becomes NADPH
What is the term referring to the group of organic molecules that assist in the activation of enzymes?
Coenzyme, like NAD, NADP, CoA.
Why the cell has both NAD and NADP?
They both help to transfer or get rid of electrons produced during cellular metabolism.
Is CoA an electron carrier?
no, NAD+/NADH and FAD/FADH2 and NADP+/NADPH are electron carriers, coenzyme A is not
