  2. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicotinamide_adenine_di...

    Both NAD + and NADH strongly absorb ultraviolet light because of the adenine. For example, peak absorption of NAD + is at a wavelength of 259 nanometers (nm), with an extinction coefficient of 16,900 M −1 cm −1. NADH also absorbs at higher wavelengths, with a second peak in UV absorption at 339 nm with an extinction coefficient of 6,220 M ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-dependent_reactions

    NADH dehydrogenase → plastoquinol → b 6 f → cyt c 6 → cyt aa 3 → O 2. where the mobile electron carriers are plastoquinol and cytochrome c 6, while the proton pumps are NADH dehydrogenase, cyt b 6 f and cytochrome aa 3 (member of the COX3 family). Cyanobacteria are the only bacteria that produce oxygen during photosynthesis.

  4. Cellular respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_respiration

    In the presence of oxygen, when acetyl-CoA is produced, the molecule then enters the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) inside the mitochondrial matrix, and is oxidized to CO 2 while at the same time reducing NAD to NADH. NADH can be used by the electron transport chain to create further ATP as part of oxidative phosphorylation. To fully oxidize ...

    d -Glucose + 2 [NAD] + + 2 [ADP] + 2 [P] i 2 × Pyruvate 2 × + 2 [NADH] + 2 H + + 2 [ATP] + 2 H 2 O Glycolysis pathway overview The use of symbols in this equation makes it appear unbalanced with respect to oxygen atoms, hydrogen atoms, and charges. Atom balance is maintained by the two phosphate (P i) groups: Each exists in the form of a hydrogen phosphate anion, dissociating to contribute ...

  6. Citric acid cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citric_acid_cycle

    Overview of the citric acid cycle. The citric acid cycle—also known as the Krebs cycle, Szent–Györgyi–Krebs cycle, or TCA cycle (tricarboxylic acid cycle) [1] [2] —is a series of biochemical reactions to release the energy stored in nutrients through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and alcohol.

  7. Fumarate reductase (NADH) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fumarate_reductase_(NADH)

    In enzymology, a fumarate reductase (NADH) (EC 1.3.1.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction succinate + NAD + ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } fumarate + NADH + H + Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are succinate and NAD + , whereas its three products are fumarate , NADH , and H + .

  8. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD(P)+) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate...

    The 4 substrates of this enzyme are D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, phosphate, NAD +, and NADP +, whereas its 4 products are 3-phospho-D-glyceroyl phosphate, NADH, NADPH, and H +. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases , specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.

  9. Calvin cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_cycle

    The Calvin cycle, light-independent reactions, bio synthetic phase, dark reactions, or photosynthetic carbon reduction (PCR) cycle [1] of photosynthesis is a series of chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen-carrier compounds into glucose.
