| mononucleotide | <biochemistry> Phosphate esters of nucleosides. The metabolic precursors of nucleic acids are monoesters with phosphate on carbon 5 of the pentose (known as 5' to distinguish sugar from base numbering). However many other structures, such as adenosine 3'5' cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and molecules with 2 or 3 phosphates are also called nucleotides. (18 Nov 1997) |

| nicotinamide mononucleotide | <chemical> 3-carbamoyl-1-beta-d-ribofuranosyl pyridinium hydroxide-5'phosphate, inner salt. A nucleotide in which the nitrogenous base, nicotinamide, is in beta-n-glycosidic linkage with the c-1 position of d-ribose. Synonym: nicotinamide ribonucleotide; nmn. Chemical name: Pyridinium, 3-(aminocarbonyl)-1-(5-O-phosphono-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-, inner salt (12 Dec 1998) |

| flavin mononucleotide | <biochemistry> This biomolecule serves as a coenzyme for some enzymes that catalyse oxidation-reduction reactions. (09 Oct 1997) |
| flavin mononucleotide reductase | <enzyme> Nad(p)h + h+ + fmn yields NADP(+) + fmnh(2) Registry number: EC 1.6.99.- Synonym: flavin reductase, fmn reductase, NADPH-fmn oxidoreductase, NADH-fmn oxidoreductase, NADPH-flavin oxidoreductase, NADPH-flavin reductase, NADH-flavin oxidoreductase, frase i (26 Jun 1999) |
