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.
Is CoA an electron carrier?
no, NAD+/NADH and FAD/FADH2 and NADP+/NADPH are electron carriers, coenzyme A is not
Why does fermentation occur in fungi?
Fermentation assures a supply of NAD+ and NADP+ for glycolysis; glycolysis is where ATP is synthesized during fermentation and ATP is essential for cell life.
How nadph has more energy than nadp?
Inside the cell, NAD is mostly oxidized. The ready availability of the NAD+ will help to speed up the oxidative reactions in the TCA and glycolysis. In contrast, NADP is mainly found in the reduced state. The high level of NADPH will promote reductive reactions in biosynthesis. (http://watcut.uwaterloo.ca/webnotes/Metabolism/page-8.2.html) NAD+ is reduced to NADH in respiration, and NADPH is produced from NADP+ in the light stage of photosynthesis and is not involved in respiration. Remember P (NADP+ and Photosynthesis).
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)
Is NADP cell energy?
yes ATP and NADP is cell energy
What are three hydrogen carriers involved in aerobic respiration?
Nad, nadp, fad
How is nad involved in the product of glycolysis?
like NADP+ in photosynythesis, each NAD+ accepts a pair of high-energy electrons. This molecule, known as NADH, holds the electrons until they can be transferred to other molecules. By doing this, NAD+ helps to pass energy from glucose to other pathways in the cell.
How is the function of NAD plus similar to that of NADP plus?
NAD is an electron/H carrier in respiration and NADP is an electron/H carrier in photosynthesis.
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.
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.
Is CoA an electron carrier?
no, NAD+/NADH and FAD/FADH2 and NADP+/NADPH are electron carriers, coenzyme A is not
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..............
