Fluorescence in NADH and NADPH is localized to the nicotinamide moiety (a), where the amide group can adopt a cis (shown) or trans form by rotating 180° around the bond linking it to the pyridine ring. NADPH differs in structure from NADH by the presence of a phosphate group (b) at the adenine (c) end of the molecule.
