CONT

In chloroplasts the electron-transfer chain has some carrier molecules similar to those of the respiratory chains of mitochondria and bacteria, but the flow of electrons is in the opposite direction. The chain begins with water and ends with a phosphorylated form of NAD+, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, or NADP+.

  • Biochimie
CONT

Dans les chloroplastes, la chaîne de transfert des électrons fait intervenir des molécules porteuses semblables à celles des chaînes respiratoires des mitochondries et des bactéries, mais le flux d'électrons va en sens inverse. La chaîne part de l'eau pour aboutir à une forme phosphorylée du NAD+: le nicotinamide-adénine-dinucléotide-phosphate ou NADP+.
