Abstract
Two research groups have solved crystal structures of nicotinic acid phosphoribosyltransferase (PRTase) and made the argument that PRTases in three distinct pathways of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthesis evolved from a common ancestor (Shin et al., 2005 and Chappie et al., 2005).
