About Nampt

Primary_assembly 6: 49,424,332-49,462,100 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026979.1

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 236 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 20 phenotypes. Biased expression in Muscle (RPKM 673.5), Heart (RPKM 463.7) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables several functions, including cytokine activity; identical protein binding activity; and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to amyloid-beta; cellular response to oxygen-glucose deprivation; and negative regulation of cellular senescence. Located in cytoplasm; nucleus; and plasma membrane. Used to study middle cerebral artery infarction and transient cerebral ischemia. Biomarker of kidney failure; periodontitis; and pulmonary hypertension. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in transient cerebral ischemia. Orthologous to human NAMPT (nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
