Protein Domain : Quinolinate phosphoribosyl transferase, C-terminal IPR002638

Type  Domain
Description  Quinolinate phosphoribosyl transferase (QPRTase) or nicotinate-nucleotide pyrophosphorylase is involved in the de novosynthesis of NAD in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It catalyses the reaction of quinolinic acid with 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) in the presence of Mg 2+to give rise to nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NaMN), pyrophosphate and carbon dioxide [ , ]. Unlike , this domain also includes the molybdenum transport system protein ModD.
