Application

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, reduced (NADH) comprise a coenzyme redox pair (NAD+:NADH) involved in a wide range of enzyme catalyzed oxidation reduction reactions. In addition to its redox function, NAD+/NADH is a donor of ADP-ribose units in ADP-ribosylaton (ADP-ribosyltransferases; poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases ) reactions and a precursor of cyclic ADP-ribose (ADP-ribosyl cyclases).
β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide has been used in the master mix for coupled enzyme assay to estimate pectin methylesterase activity.

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (β-NADH) reduced form is an essential cofactor in all the living organisms. β-NADH functions as a hydride acceptors in biochemical redox reactions. It acts as a cell signaling molecule and is a potent neurotransmitter and neuromodulator in the peripheral nervous system. In brain, it mediates Ca2+ homeostasis, energy metabolism, aging and neuronal death.

Ever since eukaryotes subsumed the bacterial ancestor of mitochondria, the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes have had to closely coordinate their activities, as each encode different subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) system. Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of aging, but
