General description

Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is a redox cofactor of flavoproteins, such as cytochrome-b5 reductase enzyme. With the help of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), FAD can be reduced to form FADH2.

Application

Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is used as a redox cofactor (electron carrier) by flavoproteins including succinate dehydrogenase (complex), α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, apoptosis-inducing factor 2 (AIF-M2, AMID), folate/FAD-dependent tRNA methyltransferases, and N-hydroxylating flavoprotein monooxygenases. FAD is a component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.
Flavin adenine dinucleotide disodium salt hydrate has been used as a component in the extraction buffer for plant tissue extraction. It has also been used to study its effects on infarct areas of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) induced mice.
