NAD⁺ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a naturally occurring pyridine nucleotide coenzyme present in all living cells. It plays a fundamental role in cellular redox reactions and is essential for metabolic and enzymatic processes involved in energy production and cellular signaling.
In laboratory research, NAD⁺ is studied for its involvement in oxidative phosphorylation, DNA repair mechanisms, and enzymatic regulation, including interactions with sirtuins and other NAD⁺-dependent enzymes. Due to its central role in cellular metabolism, it is frequently used in biochemical and molecular biology research.
NAD⁺ is supplied in lyophilized (freeze-dried) form for stability and controlled laboratory handling.
