Flavinadenine nucleotide is coenzyme, a a prosthetic group of oxido-reductase to be precise, which transfers 1H and 1 electron, respectively. reduction equivalent using a nitrogen atom. It is a key molecule in the transfer of protons in the Respiratory chain.
It has two forms, the reduced form, which is formed in the Cytrate cycle.
