Note
a 52 kDa protein; a growth factor for early B-LYMPHOCYTES; later identified to be nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase, an enzyme that catalyzes the condensation of nicotinamide with 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate yielding nicotinamide mononucleotide, the rate limiting step in the biosynthesis of coenzyme NAD
