NAD+ is the most common <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_477/Ligand/1'>ligand</scene> for the binding of GAPDH. A ligand is a molecule that binds to a central atom to form a complex. NAD+ expresses negative cooperativity in relation to GAPDH; as NAD+ binds to the protein, the protein's affinity for the ligand decreases. | NAD+ is the most common <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_477/Ligand/1'>ligand</scene> for the binding of GAPDH.
