TargetCategoryDefinition
nicotinamide metabolic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways involving nicotinamide, pyridine-3-carboxamide, the amide of nicotinic acid. It is a member of the B complex of vitamins and occurs widely in living organisms. [ISBN:0198506732]
response to xenobiotic stimulusbiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus from a xenobiotic, a compound foreign to the organim exposed to it. It may be synthesized by another organism (like ampicilin) or it can be a synthetic chemical. [GOC:jl, GOC:krc]
response to organonitrogen compoundbiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an organonitrogen stimulus. An organonitrogen compound is formally a compound containing at least one carbon-nitrogen bond. [PMID:9869419]
animal organ regenerationbiological processThe regrowth of a lost or destroyed animal organ. [GOC:mah]
methylationbiological processThe process in which a methyl group is covalently attached to a molecule. [GOC:mah]
NAD biosynthesis via nicotinamide riboside salvage pathwaybiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) from the vitamin precursor nicotinamide riboside. [PMID:17482543]
positive regulation of gluconeogenesisbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of gluconeogenesis. [GOC:go_curators]
positive regulation of protein deacetylationbiological processAny process that increases the rate, frequency, or extent of protein deacetylation, the removal of an acetyl group from a protein amino acid. An acetyl group is CH3CO-, derived from acetic [ethanoic] acid. [GOC:ecd, PMID:20027304]
