The 3 substrates of this enzyme are FMNH2, NAD +, and NADP +, whereas its 4 products are FMN, NADH, NADPH, and H +. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is FMNH2:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase.

Flavin mononucleotide (FMN), or riboflavin-5′-phosphate, is a biomolecule produced from riboflavin (vitamin B 2) by the enzyme riboflavin kinase and functions as the prosthetic group of various oxidoreductases, including NADH dehydrogenase, as well as a cofactor in biological blue-light photo receptors.

FMN reductase (NAD(P)H) (EC 1.5.1.39, FRG) is an enzyme with systematic name FMNH 2:NAD(P) + oxidoreductase. [1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction FMNH2 + NAD(P) + ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } FMN + NAD(P)H + H +

Cellular concentrations of free or non-covalently bound flavins in a variety of cultured mammalian cell lines were reported for FAD (2.2-17.0 amol/cell) and FMN (0.46-3.4 amol/cell). [18] FAD has a more positive reduction potential than NAD+ and is a very strong oxidizing agent.
