Cytosolic NMRK2 (nicotinamide riboside kinase 2), localized predominantly in myocytes (Li et al. 1999), catalyzes the reaction of NR (N-ribosylnicotinamide) and ATP to yield NMN (beta-nicotinamide D-ribonucleotide), ADP, and H+ (Bieganowsky & Brenner 2004; Tempel et al. 2007). Covarrubias et al. (2021) suggest that extracellular NR is taken up via a specific transporter in the plasma membrane, but while proteins with this activity have been identified in prokaryotes and fungi, no homolog has been identified in mammals.
