Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide has multiple vital activities to perform in human metabolism. As a coenzyme, it is involved in redox reactions, but also as a provider of adenosine diphosphate – ribose clusters for ADP-ribosylations, as a precursor for the molecule cyclic ADP-ribose, as a substrate for DNA ligases of bacteria, plus removal from acetyl groups out of proteins by sirtuins that employ NAD for that purpose.
