Extracellular Nicotinamide Phosphoribosyltransferase Is a Component of the Senescence-Associated Secretory Phenotype

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Cellular senescence is a stress or damage response by which a cell adopts of state of essentially permanent proliferative arrest, coupled to the secretion of a number of biologically active molecules. This senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP)

Disease Progression Mediated by Egr-1 Associated Signaling in Response to Oxidative Stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
When cellular reducing enzymes fail to shield the cell from increased amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS), oxidative stress arises. The redox state is misbalanced, DNA and proteins are damaged and cellular transcription networks are activated.

The NAD Kinases of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1970
Subcellular fractions of a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been prepared by enzymic digestion of the cell walls, osmotic lysis of the protoplasts and sorbitol density gradient centrifugation of the lysate. The mitochondrial fraction has both NAD‐ and NADH‐phosphorylating enzymes, whilst the cytoplasm contains a single NAD‐specific kinase. These

Cisplatin-Induced Kidney Toxicity: Potential Roles of Major NAD+-Dependent Enzymes and Plant-Derived Natural Products

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Cisplatin is an FDA approved anti-cancer drug that is widely used for the treatment of a variety of solid tumors. However, the severe adverse effects of cisplatin, particularly kidney toxicity, restrict its clinical and medication applications. The major

It takes two to tango: NAD+ and sirtuins in aging/longevity control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The coupling of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) breakdown and protein deacylation is a unique feature of the family of proteins called ‘sirtuins.’ This intimate connection between NAD+ and sirtuins has an ancient origin and provides a ...

Photoactivation of NAD Kinase through Phytochrome [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1975
The specificities of phosphate donors and the effects of metal chelating agents and divalent metal ions on NAD kinase activation by phytochrome-far red-absorbing form (Pfr) were examined. ATP was the most efficient phosphorylating agent. Uridine 5'-triphosphate, cytidine 5'-triphosphate (CTP), inosine 5'-triphosphate, and guanosine 5'-triphosphate in ...

Nicotinamide riboside kinases display redundancy in mediating nicotinamide mononucleotide and nicotinamide riboside metabolism in skeletal muscle cells

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2017
Objective: Augmenting nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) availability may protect skeletal muscle from age-related metabolic decline. Dietary supplementation of NAD+ precursors nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and nicotinamide riboside (NR) appear

Circadian clocks and breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Circadian clocks respond to environmental time cues to coordinate 24-hour oscillations in almost every tissue of the body. In the breast, circadian clocks regulate the rhythmic expression of numerous genes.

Kinetic Studies of Pigeon Liver NAD Kinase [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean 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 ...

Molecular characterization of Escherichia coli NAD kinase [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 2001
NAD kinase was purified to homogeneity from Escherichia coli MG1655. The enzyme was a hexamer consisting of 30 kDa subunits and utilized ATP or other nucleoside triphosphates as phosphoryl donors for the phosphorylation of NAD, most efficiently at pH 7.5 and 60 °C.
