Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+/NADH) along with its phosphorylated form (NADP+/NADPH) are two molecules ubiquitously present in all organisms, and they play key roles as cofactors in fundamental catabolic and anabolic processes, respectively. The oxidation of NADPH to NADP+ initiates a casc...
