Study Notes

Cellular Energy and Metabolism

The cellular energy currency is ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate).
NADH is an anabolic electron carrier.
The function of NAD+ (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is to facilitate oxidation-reduction reactions, particularly in catabolic reactions.
Coenzyme A participates in fatty acid metabolism and the citric acid cycle.
NAD+ is involved in oxidation-reduction reactions, playing a crucial role in energy metabolism.
ATP's function is to store energy in the form of phosphate bonds, releasing energy when broken down.
NADP+ plays a role in anabolic reactions, such as fatty acid synthesis and cholesterol synthesis.
ANAD+ is not a recognized compound and may be a typo; if intended as ANADH, it would be involved in oxidation-reduction reactions.
Coenzyme A's function is to facilitate the transfer of acyl groups in metabolic reactions, particularly in fatty acid synthesis and degradation.
