Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is one of the central molecules involved in energy homeostasis, cellular signaling and antioxidative defense systems. Consequently, its biosynthetic pathways and transport systems are of vital importance. The nicotinamide/nicotinate mononucleotide adenylyltran...
