Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate abbreviated NADP+ or in older notation TPN (triphosphopyridine nucleotide) is a coenzyme used in anabolic reactions such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis which require NADPH as a reducing agent.NADPH is the reduced form of NADP+. NADP+ differs from NAD+ in the presence of an additional phosphate group on the 2′ position of the ribose ring that carries the adenine moiety.
