Description
Nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NaMN) is formed from nicotinic acid 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) in the Preiss-Handler pathway in the presence of enzyme phosphoribosyltransferase (NaPRT).Nicotinic acid mononucleotide has been used as a substrate for NMN/NaMN adenylyltransferase (NMNAT) during nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthesis
