Fatty acid synthase in complex with NADP+
Fatty acid synthase in complex with NADP+. Computer model showing the molecular structure of fatty acid synthase (FAS) complexed with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+). FAS is an multi-enzyme that plays a key role in the synthesis of fatty acids (lipids) in the human body. It is not a single enzyme but a whole enzyme system. NADP+ is a coenzyme used in anabolic reactions, such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of fatty acid synthase (FAS) in complex with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+). Against a striking black background, this computer-generated artwork highlights the complexity and beauty of biochemistry. Fatty acid synthase is not just a single enzyme but an entire system that plays a crucial role in synthesizing fatty acids or lipids within the human body. NADP+, on the other hand, acts as a coenzyme involved in various anabolic reactions like lipid and nucleic acid synthesis. The image reveals the detailed arrangement of coils, sheets, alpha helices, and beta sheets that form the secondary and tertiary structures of FAS. These structural elements contribute to its functionality as an enzyme. The presence of NADP+ within this complex further emphasizes its importance in facilitating these biochemical processes. With its precise depiction of molecular models and protein structures, this artwork offers insights into proteomics and quaternary structures. It provides scientists with valuable information about crystal structures related to lipids and fatty acids. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this scientific marvel through their lens, presenting us with a visually stunning representation of FAS's vital role in lipid synthesis. This print serves as both educational material for biology enthusiasts and art lovers alike who appreciate the beauty found within our biological systems.
