      Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is best known as an essential cofactor of biochemical reactions. In addition, it is involved in the regulation of virtually all major cellular events. These NAD-dependent regulatory functions are mediated by enzymes (e.g., sirtuins, poly–adenosine -diphosphate [ADP] ribose polymerases, ADP-ribosyl cyclases) that cleave the molecule to liberate nicotinamide ...

      Research over the last few decades has extended our understanding of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) from a vital redox carrier to an important signalling molecule that is involved in the regulation of a multitude of fundamental cellular processes. This includes DNA repair, cell cycle regulation, gene expression and calcium signalling, in which NAD is a substrate for several families of ...
