title: Dinucleoside polyphosphate NAD analogs as potential NMN adenylyltransferase inhibitors. Synthesis and biological evaluation.
abstract: Two dinucleoside polyphosphate NAD analogs, P1-(adenosine-5')-P3-(nicotinamide riboside-5')triphosphate (Np3A, 1) and P1-(adenosine-5')-P4-(nicotinamide riboside-5')tetraphosphate (Np4A, 2), were synthesized and tested as inhibitors of both microbial and human recombinant NMN adenylyltransferase. Compounds 1 and 2 proved to be selective inhibitors of microbial enzymes.
