nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase |
| Gene Summary |
Enables identical protein binding activity and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase activity. Involved in circadian regulation of gene expression; nicotinamide metabolic process; and nicotinamide nucleotide biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within NAD+ biosynthetic process. Located in cytoplasm. Is active in cytosol and mitochondrial matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in transient cerebral ischemia. Orthologous to human NAMPT (nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025] |
