Functional identification and subcellular localization of NAD kinase in the protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) is an essential biomolecule that participates in the redox homeostasis and synthesis of signaling compounds. NAD kinase (NADK) (EC 2.7.1.23/2.7.1.86) is the only enzyme capable of synthesizing NADP. This study offers an approach to the NADP metaboli...
