Binding to the reduced form, NADPH, of nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, a coenzyme involved in many redox and biosynthetic reactions. [GOC:mah]
NADPH binding is a crucial molecular function in various cellular processes, involving the interaction of the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) with proteins. NADPH serves as a reducing agent, donating electrons to facilitate enzymatic reactions. The binding of NADPH to proteins is highly specific and often involves a defined binding site, where the coenzyme interacts with amino acid residues through a combination of hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, and van der Waals forces. The binding event triggers conformational changes in the protein, modulating its activity and influencing its interaction with other molecules.
This binding process is essential for a wide range of metabolic reactions, including:
* **Redox reactions:** NADPH provides reducing equivalents to enzymes involved in biosynthesis, detoxification, and other metabolic pathways.
* **Electron transport:** In metabolic pathways like the pentose phosphate pathway, NADPH is generated and used to transfer electrons.
* **Signal transduction:** NADPH can act as a second messenger in signal transduction cascades, regulating cellular processes.
* **Reactive oxygen species (ROS) detoxification:** Enzymes like glutathione reductase utilize NADPH to reduce ROS and protect cells from oxidative stress.
* **Lipid biosynthesis:** NADPH is required for the synthesis of fatty acids and other lipids.
The binding of NADPH to proteins is a dynamic process, influenced by factors such as the concentration of NADPH, the presence of other substrates and cofactors, and the regulatory mechanisms that control enzyme activity. Variations in the binding affinity of NADPH to different proteins contribute to the specificity and regulation of various cellular processes.'
