nic·o·tin·a·mide ad·e·nine di·nu·cle·o·tide phos·phate (NADP, NADP+, NADPH),

(nik'ō-tin'ă-mīd ad'ĕ-nīn dī-nū'klē-ō-tīd fos'fāt),
A coenzyme of many oxidases (dehydrogenases), in which the reaction NADP+ + 2H ⇋ NADPH + H+ takes place; the third phosphoric group esterifies the 2'-hydroxyl of the adenosine moiety of NAD+.
