The metabolic nucleotide that matches with the description “the high-energy form of coenzyme A”.
Introduction:
Nucleotides are the building blocks of the nucleic acids such as deoxy ribonucleic acid (DNA), and ribonucleic acid (RNA). These nucleotides have significant metabolic functions in cells, therefore, called as “metabolic nucleotides”. They act as energy exchanger and can also be coenzymes. Metabolic nucleotides have two forms: a high energy form and a low energy form.
c.
To match:
The metabolic nucleotide that matches with the description “the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide”
