Gene nameNMNAT2
Protein nameNicotinamide/nicotinic acid mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 2 (NMN/NaMN adenylyltransferase 2) (EC 2.7.7.1) (EC 2.7.7.18) (Nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 2) (NMN adenylyltransferase 2) (Nicotinate-nucleotide adenylyltransferase 2) (NaMN adenylyltransferase 2)
SynonymsC1orf15
KIAA0479
DescriptionFUNCTION: Nicotinamide/nicotinate-nucleotide adenylyltransferase that acts as an axon maintenance factor (By similarity). Axon survival factor required for the maintenance of healthy axons: acts by delaying Wallerian axon degeneration, an evolutionarily conserved process that drives the loss of damaged axons (By similarity). Catalyzes the formation of NAD(+) from nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and ATP . Can also use the deamidated form; nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NaMN) as substrate but with a lower efficiency . Cannot use triazofurin monophosphate (TrMP) as substrate . Also catalyzes the reverse reaction, i.e. the pyrophosphorolytic cleavage of NAD(+) . For the pyrophosphorolytic activity prefers NAD(+), NADH and NaAD as substrates and degrades nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NHD) less effectively . Fails to cleave phosphorylated dinucleotides NADP(+), NADPH and NaADP(+) . Also acts as an activator of ADP-ribosylation by supporting the catalytic activity of PARP16 and promoting mono-ADP-ribosylation of ribosomes by PARP16 . .
