Description |
nicotinamide riboside kinase 2 |
| Gene Summary |
Enables ribosylnicotinamide kinase activity and ribosylnicotinate kinase activity. Involved in NAD+ biosynthetic process via the salvage pathway; NADP+ biosynthetic process; and nicotinamide riboside metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of myoblast differentiation. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; lung; skeletal muscle tissue; and thymus. Orthologous to human NMRK2 (nicotinamide riboside kinase 2).
