CheKine Micro NAD+ kinase (NADK) Activity Assay Kit

NADK (EC 2.7.1.23) is widely found in animals, plants, microorganisms and cultured cells. It is the only enzyme that can catalyze the phosphorylation of NAD+ to NADP+ in organisms. It can catalyze the phosphorylation reaction of NAD(H) with ATP or inorganic polyphosphate [poly(P)] as a phosphoryl donor to generate NADP(H). Therefore, NAD kinase plays an important role in the synthesis of NADP(H) and the regulation of the balance between NAD(H) and NADP(H).
