NADP+ nucleosidase activity
Definition
Target type: molecularfunction
Catalysis of the reaction: NADP+ + H2O = ADP-D-ribose-2-phosphate + nicotinamide. [RHEA:19849]
NADP+ nucleosidase activity is a crucial enzyme activity involved in the hydrolysis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+). This hydrolysis results in the cleavage of the glycosidic bond between the nicotinamide moiety and the adenosine diphosphate ribose moiety of NADP+. Specifically, the enzyme catalyzes the following reaction:
NADP+ + H2O --u003e nicotinamide + adenosine diphosphate 2'-phosphate
This reaction is crucial in various metabolic pathways, particularly in the salvage pathway for nicotinamide. This pathway is essential for the biosynthesis of NAD+ and NADP+, which are fundamental coenzymes in numerous redox reactions within the cell.
NADP+ nucleosidase activity plays a vital role in the regulation of NADP+ levels and the production of nicotinamide, which can be recycled into NAD+ or NADP+. This enzyme activity is also involved in the degradation of NADP+ and the production of nicotinamide, a precursor for the synthesis of other important molecules like tryptophan and nicotinic acid.
The activity of NADP+ nucleosidase is highly regulated and influenced by various factors, including substrate concentration, pH, and the presence of inhibitors. Understanding the molecular function of NADP+ nucleosidase activity provides valuable insights into the intricate mechanisms governing NADP+ metabolism and its crucial role in maintaining cellular redox balance and overall cellular function.'
