Flavin Mononucleotide (FMN)（Cat No.:M067043）, is a vital cofactor in various enzymatic reactions, particularly in redox reactions occurring within cells. It is derived from riboflavin (vitamin B2) and plays a critical role in energy production, acting as an electron carrier in the electron transport chain of cellular respiration. FMN is also involved in other metabolic processes, including the biosynthesis of fatty acids and the metabolism of drugs and toxins. It is an essential molecule for the functioning of flavoproteins, which are enzymes that catalyze a wide range of biochemical reactions necessary for life and health.
