Structure-Based Discovery of Novel Amide-Containing Nicotinamide Phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt) Inhibitors

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23617784

Function

[NAMPT_HUMAN] Catalyzes the condensation of nicotinamide with 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate to yield nicotinamide mononucleotide, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of NAD. It is the rate limiting component in the mammalian NAD biosynthesis pathway (By similarity).
