    Summary
    Enables nicotinate-nucleotide diphosphorylase (carboxylating) activity. Involved in NAD biosynthetic process and quinolinate metabolic process. Located in cytoplasm. Used to study Huntington's disease. Orthologous to human QPRT (quinolinate phosphoribosyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
