Overview
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a fundamental coenzyme found in all living cells. This dinucleotide is composed of two nucleotides joined through their phosphate groups and plays a critical role in cellular metabolism and energy transfer. Research-grade NAD+ serves as a valuable tool for investigating cellular bioenergetics, redox reactions, sirtuin biology, DNA repair mechanisms, and related metabolic processes in controlled laboratory and preclinical research settings.
