General description

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (β-NAD) is a ubiquitous biomolecule containing an adenylic acid and a nicotinamide-5′-ribonucleotide group linked together by a pyrophosphate moiety. In NAD+ complexes, the enzyme-cofactor interactions are highly conserved.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products that adhere to one or more of the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry. Beta-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is a bio-derived redox cofactor that works together with enzymes as part of a biocatalyst system. It can be efficiently recycled in many reactions, enabling selective oxidations while reducing waste and supporting greener, more sustainable chemical processes. Click here for more information.

Other Notes

This is the common form of NAD.

Application

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrate has been used as a supplement in chocolate agar plates for Haemophilus influenzae growth.

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (β-NAD) is an electron carrier and a cofactor, significantly involved in enzyme-catalyzed oxido-reduction processes and many genetic processes. NAD cycles between the oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH) forms to maintain a redox balance necessary for continued cell growth. NAD is also involved in microbial catabolism. β-NAD acts as a substrate for various enzymes in several cellular processes.
