Episodic evolution of a eukaryotic NADK repertoire of ancient provenance.
NAD kinase (NADK) is the sole enzyme that phosphorylates nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+/NADH) into NADP+/NADPH, which provides the chemical reducing power in anabolic (biosynthetic) pathways. While prokaryotes typically encode a single NADK, eukaryotes encode multiple NADKs. How these diffe...
