Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is an essential precursor of nicotinamide adenine
dinucleotide (NAD+), which is widely applied in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries …

Background All organisms use cofactors to extend the catalytic capacities of proteins. Many
bacteria and archaea can synthesize cofactors from primary metabolites, but there are also …

Nitrogen acquisition and assimilation is a primary concern of insects feeding on diets largely
composed of plant material. Reclaiming nitrogen from waste products provides a rich …

Biological production of chemicals often requires the use of cellular cofactors, such as
nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+). These cofactors are expensive to …

Abstract β-Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is, one of the nucleotide compounds, a
precursor of NAD+ and has recently attracted attention as a nutraceutical. Here, we develop …

Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) serves as a precursor for NAD+ synthesis and has
been shown to have positive effects on the human body. Previous research has …

Background Noncanonical redox cofactors are emerging as important tools in cell-free
biosynthesis to increase the economic viability, to enable exquisite control, and to expand …

Formation of NADP+ from NAD+ is catalyzed by NAD kinase (NadK; EC 2.7. 1.23). Evidence
is presented that NadK is the only NAD kinase of Salmonella enterica and is essential for …

Introduction β-nicotinamide mononucleotide (β-NMN) is an essential precursor of
nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and plays a key role in supplying NAD+ and …

Only 25% of bacterial membrane transporters have functional annotation owing to the
difficulty of experimental study and of accurate prediction of their function. Here we report a …
