The metabolism of [carboxyl-14C]anthranilic acid. I. The incorporation of radioactivity into NAD+ and NADP+.
A new pathway of NAD+ synthesis from anthranilic acid was found in the livers of rats. Starting from [carboxyl-14C]anthranilic acid, radioactive NAD+ and NADP+ were produced as judged by Dowex-1 X 8-formate column chromatography followed by radiochromatography. Several intermediate compounds, such as quinolinic acid, nicotinic acid mononucleotide, and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide were also identified with the aid of various chromatographic techniques. In the experiments with liver microsomal hydroxylation systems, anthranilic acid was converted into not only 5-hydroxyanthranilic acid but also 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid.
