NERNST: a genetically-encoded ratiometric non-destructive sensing tool to estimate NADP(H) redox status in bacterial, plant and animal systems [PDF]
NADP(H) is a central metabolic hub providing reducing equivalents to multiple biosynthetic, regulatory and antioxidative pathways in all living organisms.

The regulation and catalytic mechanism of the NADP-malic enzyme from tobacco leaves [PDF]
The non-photosynthetic NADP-malic enzyme EC 1.1.1.40 (NADP-ME), which catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of L-malate and NADP+ to produce pyruvate and NADPH, respectively, and which could be involved in plant defense responses, was isolated from ...

NADP(H) allosterically regulates the interaction between ferredoxin and ferredoxin‐NADP+ reductase [PDF]
Ferredoxin‐NADP+ reductase (FNR) in plants receives electrons from ferredoxin (Fd) at the end of the photosynthetic electron transfer chain and converts NADP+ to NADPH. The interaction between Fd and FNR in plants was previously shown to be attenuated by

NADP-Dependent Malic Enzyme 1 Participates in the Abscisic Acid Response in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Arabidopsis thaliana possesses three cytosolic (NADP-ME1-3) and one plastidic (NADP-ME4) NADP-dependent malic enzymes. NADP-ME2 and -ME4 show constitutive expression, in contrast to NADP-ME1 and -ME3, which are restricted to particular tissues.

Adjustment of light-responsive NADP dynamics in chloroplasts by stromal pH
Cyclic electron transfer (CET) predominates when NADP+ is at basal levels, early in photosynthetic induction; however, the mechanism underlying the subsequent supply of NADP+ to fully drive steady-state linear electron transfer remains unclear.

NADP(H)-dependent biocatalysis without adding NADP(H)
Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) naturally copurifies and crystallizes in a resting state with a molecule of its exchangeable cofactor, NADP + /NADPH, bound in each monomer of the homodimer. We report electrochemical studies with IDH1 that exploit this property to reveal the massive advantage of nanoconfinement to ...

Chloroplast NADP-dependent malate dehydrogenase (NADP-MDH) is a redox regulated enzyme playing an important role in plant redox homeostasis. Leaf NADP-MDH activation level is considered a proxy for the chloroplast redox status.

Preferential utilization of NADPH as the endogenous electron donor for NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) in intact pulmonary arterial endothelial cells [PDF]
The goal was to determine whether endogenous cytosolic NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) preferentially uses NADPH or NADH in intact pulmonary arterial endothelial cells in culture.
