The enzyme nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase (NNT) transfers hydride from NADH to NADP coupled to H translocation across the inner mitochondrial membrane. In a recent study, Kampjut and Sazanov reveal that the bifunctional NNT mechanism rules the NAD(P)/NAD(P)H interconversion ratio, which in turn regulates antioxidant defense and sirtuin actions.
酶烟酰胺核苷酸转氢酶(NNT)将氢从 NADH 转移到 NADP,同时伴随着 H 穿过线粒体内膜的转运。在最近的一项研究中,Kampjut 和 Sazanov 揭示了双功能 NNT 机制控制 NAD(P)/NAD(P)H 的转化比例,而这反过来又调节了抗氧化防御和沉默调节蛋白的作用。
