Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is a compound that plays a key role in cellular metabolism, particularly in the production of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). NAD+ is a coenzyme involved in various cellular processes, including energy production, DNA repair, and gene expression regulation.
NMN is a precursor to NAD+, meaning it is converted into NAD+ in cells. NAD+ is essential for the functioning of enzymes called sirtuins, which play roles in longevity, cellular repair, and metabolic regulation.
NAD+ is a vital coenzyme in cellular metabolism, particularly in processes like glycolysis (the breakdown of glucose for energy), the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), and oxidative phosphorylation (generation of ATP, the cellular energy currency). By supplying cells with NMN, it can support these metabolic pathways and overall cellular energy production.
