The nucleoid is a region of cytoplasm where the chromosomal DNA is located. It is not a membrane bound nucleus, but simply an area of the cytoplasm where the strands of DNA are found.Most bacteria have a single, circular chromosome that is responsible for replication, although a few species do have two or more.he function of a nucleoid is it contains genetic material and the DNA determines what proteins and enzymes an organism can synthesise.
9 pentose phosphate pathway (7). 1  1. Pentose Phosphate PathwayThree main functions:1) Supply the cell with NADPH in order to: a) provide reducing power for biosynthetic reactions.2  b) serve as a biochemical reductant (e.g., maintain glutathione levels).3  c) be utilized by the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase system. 1.

Acetyl coenzyme A or acetyl-CoA is a molecule that participates in many biochemical reactions in protein, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.[1] Its main function is to deliver the acetyl group to the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) to be oxidized for energy production. Coenzyme A (CoASH or CoA) consists of a Î²-mercaptoethylamine group linked to the vitamin pantothenic acid through an amide linkage.
