Nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase (NMNAT) is shown to be a synapse maintenance factor that protects the active zone structure by interacting with the active zone protein Bruchpilot and shielding it from activity-induced degradation in ...

Nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase catalyses the final step in the synthesis of nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) by transferring the adenylyl moiety of ATP to nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) with the release of pyrophosphate.

The potential for biased signalling in the P2Y receptor family of GPCRs
The purinergic receptor family is primarily activated by nucleotides, and contains members of both the G protein coupled‐receptor (GPCR) superfamily (P1 and P2Y) and ligand‐gated ion channels (P2X). The P2Y receptors are widely expressed in the human body, and given the ubiquitous nature of nucleotides, purinergic signalling is involved with a plethora

S‐Adenosylmethionine (SAM) hydrolases counter increased SAM epimerisation in thermophilic archaea
S‐Adenosyl‐l‐methionine (SAM) is a vital enzyme cofactor. Epimerisation at the sulfonium centre of biologically active (SS,SCα)‐SAM is driven by heat, yielding biologically inactive (RS,SCα)‐SAM. Here, two novel archaeal SAM hydrolases from the thermophilic Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and the halophilic Haloferax volcanii are shown to cleave (RS,SCα)‐SAM.

Energetic dysregulations in psychotic disorders: Targets for new therapeutics
The present review synthesizes literature documenting aberrant energy production and use, specifically related to mitochondrial and redox dysregulation, in psychotic disorders. Findings from different levels of investigation—genetic, cellular, and in vivo imaging—converge on aberrant energy metabolism as a hallmark of psychotic disorders.
