How are ATP and NADH similar? They are interchangeable energy carriers, allowing the cell to use whichever molecule is in greatest abundance as a source of energy. They both act as electron carriers in the cell. Both compounds function as mobile energy carrier molecules in a cell. Both molecules are oxidized by molecular oxygen (O2) in reactions that release energy for use by the cell. Both ATP and NADH function as reducing agents in metabolic reactions.
