New Chemical Probe Targeting Bacterial NAD Kinase [PDF]
Molecules, 2020 Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) kinases are essential and ubiquitous enzymes involved in the tight regulation of NAD/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) levels in many metabolic pathways.

Molecular properties and regulation of NAD+ kinase (NADK) [PDF]
Redox Biology, 2023 Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) kinase (NADK) phosphorylates NAD+, thereby producing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). Both NADK genes and the NADP(H)-producing mechanism are evolutionarily conserved among archaea, bacteria ...

NAD Kinase in Higher Plants [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1966 NAD kinase was exclusively found in the soluble portion of the cell components. The enzyme was purified about 100-fold from sucrose extracts of spinach leaves.Plant NAD kinase catalyzes formation of NADP from NAD, ATP, and Mg(++), but scarcely any formation of NADPH from NADH. NADH was a very potent competitive inhibitor of NAD phosphorylation by plant

Metabolically distinct roles of NAD synthetase and NAD kinase define the essentiality of NAD and NADP in Mycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]
mBio, 2023 Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and its phosphorylated derivative (NADP) are essential cofactors that participate in hundreds of biochemical reactions and have emerged as therapeutic targets in cancer, metabolic disorders, neurodegenerative ...

NAD Kinases Use Substrate-assisted Catalysis for Specific Recognition of NAD [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2007 Here we describe the crystal structures of the NAD kinase (LmNADK1) from Listeria monocytogenes in complex with its substrate NAD, its product NADP, or two synthesized NAD mimics. We identified one of the NAD mimics, di-adenosine diphosphate, as a new substrate for LmNADK1, whereas we showed that the closely related compound di-5'-thioadenosine is a ...

Kinetic Studies of Pigeon Liver NAD Kinase [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1968 A procedure for the purification of NAD kinase from pigeon liver acetone powder is described. Although not homogeneous, the preparation is largely free of enzymes which interfere with the assay of NAD kinase. The kinetics with magnesium as the activating ion are described: from Interrelationships between the kinetic coefficients, the modes of ...

Physiological Significance of NAD Kinases in Cyanobacteria
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Unicellular cyanobacteria are thought to be the evolutionary ancestors of plant chloroplasts and are widely used both for chemical production and as model organisms in studies of photosynthesis. Although most research focused on increasing reducing power

Induction of the nicotinamide riboside kinase NAD+ salvage pathway in a model of sarcoplasmic reticulum dysfunction [PDF]
Skeletal Muscle, 2020 Background Hexose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (H6PD) is a generator of NADPH in the Endoplasmic/Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (ER/SR). Interaction of H6PD with 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 provides NADPH to support oxo-reduction of inactive to active ...
