NAD+ 500mg

NAD+ — nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide — is a coenzyme present in every living cell, formed from two nucleotides joined at their phosphate groups, one bearing adenine and the other nicotinamide. It is best known as the electron carrier of the NAD+/NADH couple in glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, but the research interest of the past two decades lies in its second role: as a substrate consumed by sirtuins, PARPs and CD38. That consumption is what ties cellular NAD+ availability to DNA-repair and metabolic signalling research rather than to energy transfer alone. Supplied lyophilised. Independently assayed by a third-party laboratory, named on this page; the certificate of analysis for this lot, with its measured purity and batch number, is published on this page. For laboratory research use only.
