General description

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is an important cofactor for oxidation-reduction reactions in mitochondria.

Application

α-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide has been used in superoxide dismutase activity of seminal plasma samples and in glutathione peroxidase assay of liver, kidney, testes and brain samples.
α-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (αNAD) may be used together with other NAD analogues to study the specificity and kinetics of NAD-dependent and NAD-transporting enzymes and proteins, such as NAD-glycohydrolase(s) and the mitochondrial NAD+ transporter in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Biochem/physiol Actions

α-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (α-NAD) is a substrate for renalase. α-NAD, an analog of β-NAD, when used modulates kinetics of NAD dependent enzymes.

Other Notes

α analog of β-NAD

Disclaimer

This is not the common NAD required in the usual enzyme systems.
