A Tailor-Made Deazaflavin-Mediated Recycling System for Artificial Nicotinamide Cofactor Biomimetics

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and its 2′-phosphorylated form NADP are crucial cofactors for a large array of biocatalytically important redox enzymes. Their high cost and relatively poor stability, however, make them less attractive electron mediators for industrial processes. Nicotinamide cofactor biomimetics (NCBs) are easily...
