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 +
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.

NAD + to NADH. FMN to FMNH 2. CoQ to CoQH 2.. Complex I is the first enzyme of the mitochondrial electron transport chain.There are three energy-transducing enzymes in the electron transport chain - NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I), Coenzyme Q – cytochrome c reductase (complex III), and cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV).

The main factor affecting the formal (or apparent) reduction potentials ′ in biochemical or biological processes is the pH. To determine approximate values of formal reduction potentials, neglecting in a first approach changes in activity coefficients due to ionic strength, the Nernst equation has to be applied taking care to first express ...
The balance between the oxidized and reduced forms of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is called the NAD + /NADH ratio. This ratio is an important component of what is called the redox state of a cell, a measurement that reflects both the metabolic activities and the health of cells. [ 26 ]
NMNH (Dihydronicotinamide mononucleotide), also known as reduced nicotinamide mononucleotide. [1] Both NMNH and NMN increase NAD+ levels in the body. [1] NAD+ is a universal coenzyme that plays vital roles in nearly all living organisms functioning in various biological processes such as metabolism, cell signaling, gene regulation, and DNA repair.
