Disease relevance of nicotinate ribonucleotide

  • Expression of the gene identified in Escherichia coli yielded a protein with QAPRTase activities that catalyzed the de novo formation of nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NaMN) [1].
  • RESULTS: The crystal structure of QAPRTase from Salmonella typhimurium has been determined with bound QA to 2.8 A resolution, and with bound NAMN to 3.0 A resolution [2].
