Stress exposure results in increased peroxisomal levels of yeast Pnc1 and Gpd1, which are imported via a piggy-backing mechanism.

In this paper, the catalytic mechanism of Pnc1 has been investigated by using a combined quantum-mechanical/molecular-mechanical (QM/MM) approach based on the recently obtained crystal structure of Pnc1.
Title: A QM/MM study of the catalytic mechanism of nicotinamidase.
The overall kinetic mechanism of eukaryotic nicotinamidase from S. cerevisiae (Pnc1) is established through product inhibition analysis, also demonstrating that nicotinamide analogues are Pnc1 inhibitors.

overall data showed that PNC1 is a biomarker of mRNA mistranslation and protein misfolding and that PNC1-GFP fusions can be used to monitor these two important biological phenomena in vivo
Title: The yeast PNC1 longevity gene is up-regulated by mRNA mistranslation.
Exogenous nicotinamide can therefore have negative or positive impacts on rDNA silencing, depending on the PNC1 expression level.

Preferred Names: nicotinamidase

NP_011478.3

EC 3.5.1.19

Nicotinamidase that converts nicotinamide to nicotinic acid; part of the NAD(+) salvage pathway; required for life span extension by calorie restriction; lacks a peroxisomal targeting signal but is imported into peroxisomes via binding to Gpd1p; PNC1 expression responds to all known stimuli that extend replicative life span; protein increases in abundance and relative distribution to cytoplasmic foci decreases upon DNA replication stress

nicotinamidase; Nicotinamidase/pyrazinamidase (PZase). Nicotinamidase, a ubiquitous enzyme in prokaryotes, converts nicotinamide to nicotinic acid (niacin) and ammonia, which in turn can be recycled to make nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). The same enzyme is ...
