Nicotinamide Nucleotide Transhydrogenase

The video explores the mechanisms of cytochrome C oxidase in the respiratory chain, focusing on the formation of reactive intermediates like superoxide. It explains how enzymes like superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase work together to neutralize these radicals, protecting the body from damage. The role of nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase in generating NADPH for reducing glutathione is also discussed, highlighting the body's antioxidant defense system.
